Unlike a bar code label which requires line of sight reading and can only have a single code for all items of a particular product, an RFID tag can identify each individual unit of that product even when it is on the move, besides allowing the data on it to be updated. |

Top reasons
to choose
RFID technology
over barcodes |
|
-
| Barcode readers require a direct line of sight to the printed barcode; RFID readers do not require a direct line of sight. This applies to passive RFID tags and RFID solutions which can be customized to cater to the RFID India market. |
-
| A barcode read range is not more than five to ten feet. RFID tags can be read at distances of up to 50 feet. Xtenna™ based RFID can read RFID tags from larger distances. These long read ranges have been demonstrated in the RFID India market. |
-
| RFID readers have an inherent capability to read RFID tags much faster. RFID readers that support Dense Reader Module have the capacity to read up to 40 tags per second. |
-
| Reading barcodes is a time-consuming matter. This is on account of a direct line of sight which is required. In some cases, if the items are not properly aligned to the reader it may take seconds to read an individual barcode. |
-
| Barcode readers tend to take a half-second or more to successfully complete a single read. The RFID India market requires faster RFID tag read rates due to larger quantities and volumes required to be processed and read. |
-
| One of the biggest limitations associated with barcodes is line of sight which limits the ruggedness of barcodes. It also results in limiting reusability factor for barcodes. On account of line of sight, the printed barcode label strip must be exposed at all times for the product, as a result of which it is subject to greater wear and tear. |
-
| RFID tags are far more rugged than barcodes, since the RFID chip is better encased in a plastic cover. RFID tags can also be embedded in the product itself, thereby ensuring greater ruggedness and reusability. |
-
| RFID solutions requiring rugged RFID tags are Library RFID, Retail RFID, RFID Asset Tracking, RFID Supply Chain and Laundry RFID. |
-
| Barcodes do not have read & write capability, i.e., information or data cannot be added onto a printed barcode label. However RFID tags allow you to read, write, re-write & lock data or information thereby making communication possible between RFID reader and tag. The RFID India market requires such RFID tags. |
-
| RFID technology in India can be deployed for a variety of applications such as Library RFID, Retail RFID, RFID Asset Tracking, RFID Supply Chain and Livestock RFID. |
