Advantages of RFID:
RFID is automatic-identification & tracking technology, usually requires no line of sight for scanning, can be embedded but track accurate technology.
With many advantages, people applied RFID technology with their creation used in daily life. Here is a list of RFID based application for your reference, you can use your creativity and innovate more on this effect and spark your situation.
1. Companies using RFID in the supply chain
Winning in the supply chain means increasing efficiency, improving quality, warehouse management, reducing errors. Cable tie identification tags used for clothes management in bulk, cable data collection, fire extinguisher regular checking. Items can be tracked from the manufacturer, shipping, and distribution by RFID equipment tags and transfer data in real time.

RFID nail industrial tags can tell you the age of the tree in the forest, the fruiting rate of the fruit trees, and store all details of trees and wooden. Sunny day or rainy day, the RFID tree nail tags are still workable outside. The glue protects the chip inside totally. It’s small size, looks harmonious when installing in the wood, pallet or trees. Big size for UHF chip, you can get the data at the distance of 60-70cm.
6. RFID Checkpoint for identification and checking
RFID Checkpoint tag also calls the NFC token tag. In many units, such as communities, hotels, factories and mines, coal mines, oil fields, telecommunications, railways, public security, post and telecommunications, electricity, municipal, public transport, warehouses and so on.
Embedded RFID checkpoint tag and inspection system are very important, must strictly in accordance with the lines & time.
Contactless checkpoint machine can read the information without contact. And not affected by dust, rain, snow, ice and other environmental impacts, easy to use. It’s workable outdoor.
7. Retailers using RFID most popular– Electronic shelf label
Electronic shelf label to replace traditional paper price label, each ESL is connected with an emporium computer database. Displaying the latest product information like pricing. The E ink pricer successfully computerizes shelf label, no manual interference necessary, realize consistency between POS and shelf label.
Compare to conventional paper labeling, pricer e ink has multi advantages. The core value is that it enables store dynamic pricing control in a fast and accurate way. Implements head quarter remote control of sub store price. Easy for price strategy, less customer complains and lower labor cost, improve store image.
8. RFID Tire Tag for vehicles
Each RFID tire tag provides a unique number which can be associated with useful information such as manufacturers, production date and expiry date. The RFID system can capture the RFID tire patch tag information automatically, and since each ID is unique, the history can be used for preventive maintenance or tire replacement plan.
The RFID Solution on Tire management can automatically visualize and keep track of the flow of tires, moving in/out of the re-treading factory. The whole history of the tires can be linked with the vehicle ID and even which side it is being mounted onto.
9. RFID Cards for school
RFID card for school is a plastic identification card containing IC. They are also sometimes called “smart university cards” or “Contactless student cards”, “chip card”, ”smart ID card” depending on the type of card and the smart card vendor.
Printing RFID Cards made of PVC, PET material. Standard shape is credit card shape, 85.5*54mm or custom. Usually used for school students cards, ID badge, university cards.
It’s the key to the access control or E-payment ticket in the school.
10. NFC Business Card | Custom VIP Business Card
You can encode the website or personal information in your NFC card, take the card near the mobile. The NFC Business card actually tells the phone what to do and pass the information. So that the browser can link a website or contact information.

Suited for RFID management of poultry and birds of all types for tracking and scientific testing applications. This RFID ring can also be used in other applications where a waterproof RFID ring form factor is desired.
What’s information we can get it from the RFID Bird Tag?
RFID is providing incredibly detailed information about the behaviors of our tagged birds. People are using technology to answer a variety of questions:
When do birds feed during the day?
How is feeding behavior affected by whether or competitors?
What influence does feeder location have on feeding behavior?
How are feeding patterns influenced by gender and dominance status?
And over time, people can track survival in our study populations.
