The RFID lab promotes and stimulates the commercialization and application of new RFID technologies. Radio Frequency Identification is a fast-growing technology expected to become a multi-billion dollar industry. Healthcare and logistics are two particularly promising areas of this worldwide industry.
The RFID Lab is fully equipped and outfitted with equipment and software (like RFID printers and readers, RFID access portals, conveyors, and enterprise software) for exploring applied RFID solutions. It provides a focal point for collaboration among IPFW students and interns, RFID equipment and services companies, and companies that use RFID applications. It allows companies to explore commercial use of RFID in a practical, but risk-free, application setting.
