Asset Tracking with RFID
Fixed Asset Tracking has traditionally been a labour intensive and paper based process while Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has long been reserved for toll-ways billing and as an identification process for domestic pets.
When combined, these processes make for a powerful tracking and identification system.
Where bar codes made significant in-roads into the cost of Fixed Asset Tracking by improving the accuracy of information and provided for electronic and real-time data flows, RFID based asset tracking shows even greater returns in the speed of tracking and the amount of information that can be processed.
Imagine being able to walk into a room and be able to confirm the presence of all assets and have this data recorded electronically by simply walking around!
