Radio Frequency Identification: Technology for a Smart
Future!
Even in the period of Electronic
Data Interchange (EDI) and Internet, paper is highly qualified for substantial
growth as an information carrier. Paper often represents the substrate for
barcodes or magnetic stripes, or paper contains a transponder (Chip and
antenna) to store and transmit data. To combine and surpass the advantages
of barcode and magnetic stripe, this wireless and contactless technology
does not need line of sight. In an electromagnetic field (Air Interface)
the data are captured directly from the objects without people being involved.
The combination of paper and radio transmission offers a number of attractive
opportunities in the field of Automatic Identification and Data Capture
(AIDC) for people and objects and leads to a future high volume market for
environmentally friendly disposable electronic systems. The manufacturing
of these identification elements requires knowledge in paper converting,
paper finishing and also fundamental physical experience and process technology
skills to guarantee a dependable performance of Smart Paper in the overall
system integration. Smart Labels and Smart Tickets are the electronic successors
of barcoded labels and magnetic stripe tickets. The economical benefit and
the industrial adoption of Smart Paper depend on a worldwide standard in
design and manufacturing within the complete value chain from chip to the
end product. The Qualified Manufacturing Process is bielomatik's contribution
to establish a technology for a Smart Future.
