 RETAIL TECHNOLOGY…
• It is the technology used by retail so as to
secure areas such as catalog and e commerce
fulfilment, merchandise and assortment
planning and distribution and logistics.
 RADIO FREQUENCY
IDENTIFICATION (RFID)
• It is the use of an object (RFID tag)
applied or incorporated into a product,
animal, or person for the purpose of
identification and tracking using radio
waves.
• Some tags can be read from several
meters away and beyond the line of sight
of the reader.
There are generally three types of RFID tags:-
• Active RFID tags:- It contain a battery and can
transmit signals autonomously.
• Passive RFID tags:- These are having no
battery and require an external source to
provoke signal transmission.
• Battery assisted passive (BAP):- It requires an
external source to wake up but have significant
higher forward link capability providing great
read range.
An Example of a Simple RF Subsystem
 BARCODE
• It is an optical machine {barcode readers}
readable representation of data, which shows
certain data on certain products.
• Barcodes represents data in the widths (lines)
and the spacings of parallel lines. They also
come in patterns of squares, dots, hexagons ,
other geometric patterns within imagesand
also in 2Ds.
 Enterprise resource planning
(ERP)
• It is a software which helps in the flow
of information between all business
functions within the organization and
manage the connections with the
outside stakeholders.
• Built on a centralized database and
normally utilizes a common
computing platform.
• It normally consolidate all business
operations into a uniform and
enterprise wide system environment.

Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS)

• This is technology used to identify items as they pass

through a gated area.
• Typically this identification is used to alert someone of
the unauthorized removal of items from a store,
library, or data center.
• EAS systems are used wherever there is a chance of
theft of small to large items.
• By placing an EAS tag on an item, it is not necessary to
hide the item behind locked doors and so makes it
easier for the consumer to review the product.
