Both RFID/Barcode technology help in identification and tracking of assets, people, and things. These two have transformed businesses in unimaginable ways by improving operations, enhancing customer experience, strengthening controls, and increasing revenues and profit.

Scanners and mobility devices are commonly used for barcode reading. Mobility devices are also called as Portable Data Terminals (PDTs), Portable Data Assistant (PDAs) and Handheld Terminals(HHTs). These terms are used interchangeably. Barcode readers come with two options such as 1D Barcode and 2D Barcode.

RFID helps in distinct identification of each item. Unlike barcode, RFID can help read a number of items within a radius. For instance, using RFID labels/tags, you can read all the items in a box even without opening it. Besides, you can write important information in an RFID label using the storage space embedded in the RFID chip.
