What is RFID and why is testing important?

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology enables the accurate tracking of people, assets, products and inventory. Using electromagnetic fields and radio waves, RFID tags and wireless devices can identify people and objects without physical contact. The uses of RFID are countless, from retail products, library books, airport cases, staff medications and livestock to e-Passports, smart cards and entry fobs. The number of RFID tags is growing fast, with a 20% increase year on year.

Testing these devices for functionality and security is critical as they are often responsible for tracking and monitoring vital information with implications for supply chains, workplace efficiency, security, health, and safety. System downtime, as well as inaccurate or incomplete data, could have significant consequences.
