RFID

This week we had an interesting topic to read about and discuss. Radio Frequency Identification, or RFID is all around us. Who knew that we use it in EZ-Pass? The different frequency levels are used for different technologies, also including self-checking at the library/market and tags that can be placed under the skin in animals for tracking. It is amazing to think that radio waves can read data close up or several meters away.
