RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is an automatic identification technology that uses RF signals to identify and track objects, people, or animals via RFID tags. These tags can be passive, semi-passive, or active, and they require an RFID reader to function, which converts the signals from the tags for data processing. RFID technology has various applications including access control, asset management, mass transit ticketing, and monitoring systems, and it offers benefits such as affordability and portability.

4. Our RFID readerOur RFID reader
 RFID Reader Module, are also
called as interrogators. They convert
radio waves returned from the RFID
tag into a form that can be passed on
to Controllers, which can make use
of it.
 RFID tags and readers have to be
tuned to the same frequency in order
to communicate. RFID systems use
many different frequencies, but the
most common and widely used &
supported by our Reader is 125 KHz.
