- Title
Global Mail Services Next Frontier for RFID.
- Abstract
The article cites a report from technology research firm IDTechEx that identifies postal and courier mail services as having the potential to become the second largest market for radio frequency identification (RFID) item-level tagging following the retail sector. IDTechEx notes that carriers are already deploying RFID technology to secure access to vehicles, trailers, and sorting and shipping areas and that countries such as China, South Korea, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, and Germany are moving forward with the deployment of RFID to track packages.
