Industrial track and trace: choosing the technology that measures up to your application demands

Barcode/2d matrixes were commonly used to monitor and track processes and store product information. As more and more data is associated with a given product, manufacturers are seeking a more sophisticated solution - radio frequency identification (RFID) - for enhanced visibility throughout the chain of distribution.
