Identify and Track Items Without Line-of-Sight Scanning

RFID uses radio waves to identify tagged items. Unlike traditional barcode scanning, multiple RFID tags can be detected quickly without manually aligning each label with a scanner.

  • Faster data capture
  • Item-level visibility
  • Reduced manual scanning

How RFID Works in Practice

Four straightforward actions take an item from a physical RFID label to useful operational information.

  1. Step 1

    Paste the Tag

    Attach an RFID tag or sticker label to the product, asset or item.

  2. Step 2

    Scan the Tag

    Use an RFID reader to detect and scan the attached tag.

  3. Step 3

    Get the Data

    The reader sends the captured RFID information to the software platform.

  4. Step 4

    Turn Data into Statistics

    The platform organises RFID data into useful statistics, tracking information and operational insights.
