Application of RFID Technology in Library

The library's RFID system is based on RFID technology, and combines computer technology, programmable controller technology and network communication technologies to achieve library front desk and back office management. The system basically includes: librarian workstation system, electronic label conversion system, self-service permit system, self-help loan recovery system, self-service return book sorting system, RFID inventory system, security access control system, intelligent navigation retrieval system and self-service library and other functions Subsystem.

The Singapore government invested 1 billion Singapore dollars in 1998 to build the National Library of Singapore and began construction of the RFID system. In 2002, the entire system was completed and put into use. It was the only large public library in the world that was completely managed by RFID. According to the relevant person in charge, the effectiveness of the application of the RFID system is very obvious, annual savings of tens of millions of dollars, reduce the cost of human resources of about 2,000 people, while the number of borrowing has increased by nearly 2.1 times.


With the popularization of RFID technology, it has become an inevitable trend for libraries to replace the traditional bar code-based management and anti-theft systems with RFID systems and build a new type of automated and intelligent management model. At present, there are more than 5,000 libraries in the world that use RFID systems, and the number of libraries that newly introduce RFID systems every year is still growing at a rate of 30%. RFID technology will also inevitably lead to great changes in the library's prior management and service model, and will inevitably inject new vitality into the library's future development.

RFID technology escorts the "2022 Beijing Winter Olympics Washing Guarantee Service"!

The washing guarantee service for the 2022 Winter Olympics is a large-scale intelligent service system that is centered on the washing of public textiles such as hotels and hospitals, and integrates linen leasing, washing services, and logistics and distribution. In order to successfully complete the washing guarantee work of the Winter Olympics, RFID technology is used in the whole process of linen procurement, collection, washing, sorting and distribution, helping customers to control the quality of the washing process, check the output port, and ensure the output of textiles is 100% qualified. Use RFID tags to give each linen a unique RFID digital identity, and then use UHF RFID reader equipment to collect the status information of the linen in each handover link and each washing process in real time; relying on powerful data analysis tools and automatic identification and data collection systems , it can manage the whole process and life cycle of linen, thereby

Public Hospital in Zhejiang Accelerates the Upgrade of RFID Material Management Solutions

A few days ago, the General Office of the Zhejiang Provincial Government released the "Implementation Plan for Promoting the High-Quality Development of Public Hospitals in Zhejiang Province", which clearly stated that "the operation mode has shifted from extensive management to refined management" and "doing reasonable use of medicines, monitoring of medical consumables and medical core data”, which put forward new requirements for the management mode of consumables in public hospitals. In 2019, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University College of Medicine introduced the SPD model for hospital ma terial management . The "smart update" was carried out on the previous SPD model. The hospital fully combined the latest technological means such as the Internet of Things, robots, artificial intelligence, big data, and image recognition to create a new "IF-SPD" model. The overall construction of "IF-SPD" inc

RFID Solution —— RFID Inventory Robot in Smart Library

  As more and more smart libraries around the world use RFID technology to achieve efficient management of intelligent book inventory, the sense of technology that smart libraries give everyone is directly multiplied. Intelligent inventory robots are mainly used in many item inventory scenarios. By integrating the RFID module into the intelligent in ventory robot , equipped with RFID technology and artificial intelligence, the robot is used to realize the automatic inventory of all categories of book products. Recently, a well-known library in Hong Kong and Macau has successfully applied Hopeland's UHF RFID module in this kind of project, and now the project is in progress. Hopeland smart series Multi-Port UHF RFID Modules are specialized module for developing fixed RFID reader and smart RFID cabinet system, based on Impinj R2000 or E710 chip platform, with multiple channels of SMA interfaces for RFID antennas,  and support multiple-tag and long range reading.
