SpotSee recently launched a new device that combines impact-damage monitoring with radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology. This new device, the ShockWatch RFID impact indicator, is designed ...

Damage occurs with approximately 2 percent of all shipped products, and shippers, brands and retailers typically absorb this cost. To address this problem, SpotSee developed its ShockWatch RFID Impact ...

Sensors and automatic identification have already transformed supply chains. RFID tags and scanners, barcodes, QR codes, and handheld or fixed position scanners and imagers generate real-time data ...

Cambridge, UK. RFID is booming—it now accounts for the largest number of silicon ICs of one particular type. But in addition to over 20% growth over the next few years, there is much more to come.

Better sensors help companies reduce shipping risks and react faster to disruptions, but costs and deployment challenges are still slowing adoption. According to a Capgemini Consulting survey released ...

In most applications, radio-frequency-identification (RFID) systems are used to store product and process data on, or retrieve it from, a special RFID tag using wireless technologies. Power to operate ...

With the forward drive into Industry 4.0, getting equipment to integrate on a broader level—through warnings prior to a safety problem—is increasingly important. Some of the greatest safety concerns ...

“We wondered whether we could repurpose RFID tags to do battery-free sensing and tracking,” says Nagarjun Bhat, a Ph.D. student in electrical engineering and lead author of a new study. Data is power.
