Use of RFID in clothing stores:

RFID labels (tags). RFID tags are placed on the item of clothing, each one contains a microchip with unique information about the item (size, color, price, etc.) and an antenna to transmit that information to readers. Like Zebra Technologies RFID tags.



RFID readers. These are devices that emit radio waves to read RFID tags. They receive the signals emitted by tags and decode them to extract the information stored in the microchip. There are several types of RFID readers: handheld (portable) readers, fixed readers and integrated readers. An example of a handheld RFID reader is the Zebra RFD40.

RFID antennas. The antennas are used in conjunction with RFID readers. They are installed in different points of the store, to capture the signals of the labeled products.

RFID printers. They are specialized printers that allow RFID labels to be printed and programmed with the necessary information for each product. They print the RFID tags the moment the products arrive at the store.

Software. Unlike the previous ones, it is not a physical device, but it is an essential element of RFID technology. They allow you to manage all the information collected by RFID readers, process it and analyze it in real time.
