Introduction
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
is an automatic identification
method, relying on storing and
remotely retrieving data using
devices called RFID tags or
transponders.
It can be attached to or incorporated
into a product, animal, or person for
the purpose of identification using
radio waves.

RFID tags contain silicon chips and 4
antennas.
HISTORY OF RFIDs
In 1945 Léon Theremin invented a
tool for the Soviet government
which retransmitted incident radio
waves with audio information

CONCLUSION
As with most technologies RFID is
neither good nor evil; it is simply a
tool that can be used intelligently for
the business, consumer and Public
benefit.
In near future RFIDs are going to
replace all traditional systems of
identifications viz barcodes etc.
Developments in RFID technology
continue to yield larger memory
capabilities,larger reading ranges and
12/08/21 faster processing. 16
