RFID breaks the box office
A conundrum: A delivery pallet contains 50 boxes: how can you know their content without opening them or using x-rays? By using their Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) tags and their radio signals! Too expensive to be used on a massive scale, one can reduce their cost by printing them on the packaging boxes. From storage to product distribution, the entire production chain gains in terms of efficiency and environmental impact.
