Smart Labels (also referred to RFID Labels or RFID tags) are the latest innovation in labeling products for tracking purposes and are the new and improved alternative to barcodes and QR codes.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is the use of radio waves to read and capture information stored on a tag attached to an object.
NFC (Near Field Communication) tags are a type of RFID tag that communicates between a mobile phone with wireless technology and media content, effectively replacing QR codes.
