Challenges and Problems with RFID

Challenges and Problems with RFID

Technical challenges such as erroneous reads, read collisions and the costs of handling large amounts of data generated by RFID have hampered progress. The process level change demanded by RFID still requires endless hours of discussion with organizational stakeholders at various levels; strategic, tactical and operational. The technology is still not well understood outside the laboratories, tag orientation requires extensive trials, and companies are still not willing to part with scarce resources for capital intensive projects and concerns over the invasion of privacy.

	Partially agree I think that the technology is already mature enough not to require too extensive trials. Whay you say in the rest of the message is true, but at least in my country, the biggest obstacle to RFID is the lack of technically prepared persons. This creates too high expectations on the customer side and may contribute in the end to a full or partial failure of the project
