  • Barcode
    Barcode is an AutoID Technology based on optoelectronic machine-readable. Data consisting of many bars with different width.
  • Inlay
    RFID or NFC Inlay is a microchip and antenna deposited on a film without adhesive. This is the basic for realize labels or wet-inlay
  • NDEF
    The acronym NDEF means “NFC Data Exchange Format”. It is the term that means the typical formatting of a NFC tagthat can be recognied as such by devices smartphone and tablet with integrated NFC reader. This formatting has been developed by NFC Forum, the entityin charge of “standardization” of NFC technology NDEF records can contain different information such as: -Link URI – Mailto
  • NFC (Near Field Communication)
    NFC it’s an RFID Technology based on HF 13,56MHz Frequency and on ISO14443 make as a bidirectional short range. NFC is developed from Philips, LG, Sony, Samsung and Nokia.
  • NFC – Near Field Communication
    NFC is the technology that was born basing on RFID HF (13,56MHz) technology, belonging to  ISO14443. The peculiarity is the bidirectionality of information and the possibility to be integrated also in tablet and smartphone devices, so it’s possible utilize NFC technology for micropayments, thanks to security standards introduced.
  • Passive Transponder
    Passive RFID (NFC) transponder is a tag without battery. The power supply is generated from controller and the information(microchip) is sent to controller with antenna and a capacitor.
  • RFID (NFC) Controller
    RFID Controller is a device that read/write data from transponder in a contactless mode. Can be with integrated or external antenna, fixed or mobile, with different reading and writing range.
  • Transponder (or Tag)
    Tag or Transponder consist in a microchip with and antenna and a capacitor. The word transponder is a combination of trans(mitter) and (res)ponder.
