Wal-Mart Will Expand RFID Applications To Improve Its Inventory Accuracy

It is reported that Wal-Mart's headquarters has notified suppliers to expand its RFID e-tags to some new product categories. As of September, these newly expanded products will carry RFID e-tags on Walmart store shelves.

The new areas of expansion include the following:

1. Consumer Electronics (such as TV, xbox)

2. Wireless Devices (such as mobile phones, tablets, accessories)

3. Kitchen And Dining

4. Home Decoration

5. Bathtubs And Showers

6. Storage And Organization

7. Car Battery

...

As early as 2005, Wal-Mart required its top 100 suppliers to adopt RFID technology. The introduction of RFID tags has further increased the efficiency of Wal-Mart's supply chain; previously it took hours for all retail store staff to check what's on the shelf, but now it can be done in 30 minutes.

Automated workflows based on RFID technology can automatically place orders, sort and screen. After using RFID technology, the system automatically generates electronic orders, the inventory of goods is reduced, the warehouse space is saved, and the flow rate of funds is improved.

Numerous RFID solution cases show that the competition of the overall core competence of the supply chain based on RFID technology and AIDC system has become the mainstream of modern market competition, and the competition among supply chains is related to the fate of retail enterprises.

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 Technology Optimizes Self-service in Restaurants

Smokin' Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom is a growing franchise that combines a pizzeria with a self-serve bar wall, offering fast casual dining across the United States. The company operates five stores and has plans to expand as many as 75 stores over the next few years. The company was originally designed to offer the old-fashioned way of ordering food—with the help of a cashier or bartender at a traditional bar. But its Omaha store offers a self-serve pouring booth powered by RFID technology. The company's CEO, Matt Mongoven, said the model will be replicated in all subsequent stores. The self-service system in this self-service pouring booth utilizes RFID self-pouring t echnology . Pizza and self-service tap facilities are under one roof. When customers arrive, the cashier asks if they would like to use the self-filling bar wall. If they answer "yes", the cashier scans their license and scans the RFID wristband with the restaurant's logo, ...

How to Make RFID Readers Achieve 100% Recognition

UHF RFID reader receivers also require transmitters to send unmodulated carriers when operating. Receivers include tag reflection signals, antenna noise, environmental reflections, direct transmitter coupling, and the receiver's own noise. Now if we want to stably read a distance of 10 meters, and let RFID readers achieve 100% recognition rate and be able to adapt to changes in the weather and the environment, the effect of reading is better than that of common products. What should I do? Practice: Processing Baseband Digital Signals Oversampling and filtering. Oversampling can reduce the power of quantization noise in the effective bandwidth and improve the signal-to-noise ratio, which is equivalent to increasing the resolution of the ADC. The data obtained by oversampling can be extracted by the CIC filter, so that the data rate can be returned to the normal level and then cascaded. FIR filters are band-pass filtered to further reduce noise power and imp...
