What is RFID
RFID = Radio Frequency Identification.
It is Automated Data Collection(ADC) technology that

explains:
to transfer data between a reader and a movable item to

identify, categorize, track radio frequency waves are used.

It is very quick and does not require physical sight or
contact between reader.
Low cost components are used to perform operations.
For wide range of applications, unique identification and
backend integration is required.
