The original goal of the UHF Gen 2 protocol was to enhance a retailer’s ability to identify, count and track items. But a UHF Gen 2 tag can accomplish much more than mere inventorying. Now on the horizon is the industry’s next wave of applications, including loss identification and prevention, and item anti-counterfeiting. To enable these applications, the community is enhancing the UHF Gen 2 protocol to include these and other, even more forward-looking capabilities. In this session, Chris Diorio, GS1’s UHF Gen 2 project editor and Impinj’s CTO, will give an advance preview of RFID’s future.
