RFID in New Zealand and Australia

An analysis of RFID adoption in New Zealand and Australia. Australia and New Zealand have some leadership positions in adopting RFID but in some other respects, these countries are laggards in adopting RFID and need to benchmark against best practice elsewhere and catch up. Learn of the major RFID projects in these countries so far.

RFID in Retail - growing interest in item level

An update of Wal-Mart's RFID progress, paybacks so far and experience from consumer packaged goods suppliers.

RFID - Not What it Seems

There is a great need for profit optimization and careful product positioning and repositioning in the frenetic but unforgiving RFID market that is increasing ten times to become a $26 billion business in 2016. IDTechEx has analyzed profit, cash generation, fund raising and acquisition strategy in RFID for a new report.

A view from Venture Capitalists investing in RFID

Investors seek unique technologies, then some major customers. Passive RFID oversupplied; but opportunities for active RFID and software.

Passive and Active RFID at Smart Labels Europe

In 2006 1.3 Billion RFID tags will be sold, with 500 million being applied to pallets and cases, over 200 million for contactless smart cards and the rest in a very diverse range of markets. Learn of these developments at RFID Smart Labels Europe, now co-located with Europe's first Active RFID summit.

Definitions of RFID frequencies

Near Field UHF Versus HF

Item level tagging is going to be the biggest market for RFID. However, despite many companies wanting everything at one frequency - UHF - the limitations of far field UHF systems with water and metal have hindered this. Recently there have been big developments in near field UHF, with companies citing performance similar to that of HF tags. IDTechEx provides an independent analysis.

Analysis from Printed Electronics Europe 2006

Printed Electronics Europe concentrated on commercialisation rather than academic research and the full picture of all printed electronics, not just organics. Indeed, it was revealed that inorganic electronic inks and materials are becoming more important.

Rapid adoption of RFID in healthcare

The market for RFID tags and systems in healthcare will rise rapidly from $90 million in 2006 to $2.1 billion in 2016. Learn more in our summary of our new research report.

Extreme fragmentation of RFID supply

Extreme fragmentation of RFID supply is not what the users want, and IDTechEx believe that appropriate international acquisitions could gain massive competitive advantage.

Flexo vs gravure

As processes are scaled up and costs have to come down, we see printed electronics increasingly being made with traditional high speed printing technology, particularly as suitably thin, high integrity inks become available. Read about this battle.

RFID Profit - the Taboo Subject

In any rapidly emerging market sector, there are those that make bold initiatives but miss their targets and there are those that quietly create profitable businesses. So it is with RFID, where many companies are reviewing their strategies after disappointment while others are succeeding. However, as far as the press and the analysts are concerned, profit is a taboo subject. Until now.
