What RAIN RFID Brings to the Internet of Things

Many people and organizations are working to reshape the definition, scope and technology path for the Internet of Things (IoT) – something to be expected with any popular trend. Today that definition goes beyond simply identifying and interacting with ‘things’, and includes an array of technologies from sensors and autoID, to near-field communication (NFC), Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. While the phrase Internet of Things often evokes images of ‘smart’ homes and interconnected ‘smart’ cars, the IoT presents a much broader range of new and compelling business applications across a variety of industries. By providing all kinds of objects with the capability to interconnect and share data, the IoT opens up a nearly limitless world of opportunities.
