RFID tags can be read even if they are not in the line of sight of the reader. This means that inventory items can be scanned and tracked even if they are stacked on top of each other or otherwise obscured.
RFID tags can store more information than barcodes. In addition to a unique identifier, RFID tags can store data about the item to which they are attached, such as the item’s weight, size, or color.
RFID tags do not need to be individually scanned. An RFID reader can scan multiple tags simultaneously, making inventory management more efficient.
Barcodes can be damaged or covered up, making them unreadable. RFID tags are more durable and less likely to be damaged.
