Application of RFID technology combined with Drone

With the development of electronic technology, the use of drone is endless. And RFID technology is also widely used in many fields. What is the news that RFID technology combined with drone.

1) RFID drone Inventory Management

Use RFID drones to fly around the warehouse to take inventory. RFID drones can locate all goods in a warehouse, compared to forklifts, which have height limits. It achieve inaccessible asset inventory management indoor and outdoor operations. It has the characteristics of avoiding obstacles automatically, returning to the starting place automatically, landing function autonomously and reading the tag along the road automatically.

2) RFID drone "smart farm" soil measurement

The passive sensor rfid tag is inserted into the soil, the soil moisture is measured using the tag with the sensor, and a DRONE equipped with GPS and RFID is used to read the data collected by the tag and upload the report via WIFI.

3) Livestock grazing management

Each livestock with a rfid tag, RFID signals are transmitted within a range of more than 100 meters. Drones with RFID readers and mobile phones cruise automatically within the range. Whenever RFID signals are detected, RFID data and signal strength are transmitted to a smartphone through Bluetooth, and the mobile phone can obtain the geographical location at this time. After data preprocessing, the data is transmitted to the system server through the mobile data network.The server side processes and analyzes the collected location and RFID data. The mobile client App can view the latest location data of livestock, which is convenient for farmers to manage livestock.

It also can use in retail, storage, cold chain, food, medical and other fields. It can be foreseen that the strong combination of RFID and uav technology will better adapt to the diversified market application demand and create new application mode.
