RFID for Beginners by Amie Kandowski
RFID technology is used frequently today and has been around since the 1920s, but not many people know about, or understand it. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification and is used to store and retrieve information. This information is stored and retrieved using RFID tags or transponders. ... The tags have antennas that allow them to receive and respond to radio-frequency queries from an RFID transceiver. ... RFID is generally used in security, because security gates are programmed to read the RFID tags and then either open or close accordingly.
