SOUTH WALES BRANCH
Radio Frequency ID
(RFID) Tagging
Tony Furness
National RFID Centre
Located in West Yorkshire, the National RFID Centre is sponsored by Yorkshire Forward, the Regional Development Agency. However, one of its key tasks is to co-ordinate the setting up of regional RFID centres throughout the country. In this, it works with other regional development agencies, Business Links, Chambers of Commerce and trade associations.
Radio Frequency Identification, RFID for short, is part of the digital revolution. It provides a very important platform for the identification of items, data capture and item management. In its broader sense, RFID can be viewed as a revolution in its own right. It is applicable to so many sectors of industry, commerce and services; and yields radical benefits and fast returns on investment wherever it is effectively applied.
