How will RFID be used in the future?

The future of RFID is growing and expanding as more industries and companies invest in the technology. ... Unlike barcode scanners, RFID readers do not be pointed directly at a tag to get a scan. Instead, employees using RFID can get an accurate scan from several feet away and process dozens of scans in seconds.

What type of innovation is RFID?
