Radio chips not just for auto assembly

-->



Here are some interesting places that these cool little Radio Frequency Identification Tags are being used today.  Other than using them on your vehicle, these little devices are being used everywhere and provide a ton of data to places such as the manufacturer as well as social media platforms.

When your vehicle is being assembled, the manufacturer may have placed an RFI tag to track it’s progress while it’s going down the assembly line.  Here are a few other places that these tracking devices are used.  

Pets get chipped so if they get lost they can be tracked and found.   
They are starting to use this on luggage so that this can be found if lost.
Facebook uses RFI Tags at most of their live events so the crowd can easily upload photos and make the event more popular.

Micro SD cards are used in mobile phones and can be traceable as well as reveal tons of data.  If you have a smart phone such as an Apple IPhone

Have you been shopping and found one of these tags on your clothing or other products?              

Now manufacturers like Budweiser have just came out with the Buddy Mug that has an RFI Tag that allows the data of the beverage drinker to instantly connect with another Buddy on FaceBook. 

While some people may argue about privacy these little devices are going to be around for a long time to come.
