RFID: Past the Hype and Poised for Growth

"RFID technology's time may finally be coming if implementers can learn to look beyond its current characterization as a product ID-code system, according to a new Gartner report. Findings from "Market Share and Forecast: Radio Frequency Identification, Worldwide, 2004-2010" include an expected wave of new license sales in 2006 and 2007. These new licenses will be driven by companies replacing technology they were forced to adopt by Wal-Mart or a government agency, and also by purchases of add-ons to the pilot programs of 2004 and 2005. The most important changes will come not from further expansion of older implementations, but from the discovery of new business processes that take best advantage of RFID's potential."
