<
hardware> (RFID) Small
radio transponders or "tags"
designed to be attached to items like products in a
supermarket to allow the items to be identified and tracked by
a remote system. Typically an RFID tag includes an
integrated circuit that stores data and interfaces to the
antenna, allowing the stored data to be retrieved by the
remote system.
