Wisconsin's Lab Tackles RFID Technology

"University of Wisconsin's RFID lab, which formally opened this month, will help companies use the new technology to manage their supply chains and look for other potential uses. The technology is being used to track pallets and boxes through the supply chain. Researchers say RFID could be programmed to detect bacteria and recall tainted food, prevent errors in blood transfusions and ensure drugs are not counterfeit. Critics say it will be used to track humans and erode privacy." Source: duluthsuperior.com
