When plotting IoT device number forecasts, most of the big firms don’t pay much (if any) attention to RFID tags for consumer goods. But if they did, we would be seeing much larger forecasts (in terms of volume), at least in our definition of the IoT: “connecting a device to the internet, either directly or indirectly, and deriving some sort of value from this connection.” Smart labelling, by way of cheap RFID tagging, fits that bill and allows companies to quickly and affordably track products or processes in their supply chains. In a granular fashion, and as the devices get cheaper, the value derived from gaining that insight will make RFID tagging a pretty easy decision. In a granular fashion,…
