Which are the broadly different areas of application the Markets for passive RFID cover today?
• Contactless Smart card A smart card, chip card, or integrated circuit card (ICC), is defined as any pocket-sized card with embedded integrated circuits which can process information. This implies that it can receive input which is processed – by way of the ICC applications – and delivered as an output. There are two broad categories of ICCs. Memory cards contain only non-volatile memory storage components, and perhaps some specific security logic. Microprocessor cards contain volatile memory and microprocessor components. The card is made of plastic, generally PVC, but sometimes ABS. The card may embed a hologram to avoid counterfeiting. Examples of Vicinity Smartcards: – Transport payments – Biometric Passports • Pallet & Case Tracking Pallet and case tracking involves tagging bulk packaged items (i.e. a box of goods, not the individual units of sale), usually at the manufacturing source. The implementation of pallet and case RFID tracking is anticipated to bring further efficiencie
