Introduction of chip-less printable RFID technology
The emergence of chip-less and nanotechnologies in RFID products reduces the chances of duplicating these tags. The tags provide a combination of protective functions that include traceability, authentication, and tamper evidence. RFID tags are attached to the reflective surface using an inkjet printer and are cost-effective compared to other counterfeit measures. Some of the RFID circuits that are available in the market consists of an antenna that is attached to the paper label, eliminating the need to use a separate plastic inlay to mount antenna behind it.
