RFID Handheld Readers and RFID Tag Testing Patrick Sweeney introduces this video from the Swiss Alps. Michael Myers and Bret Kinsella discuss the methodology employed in the latest Handheld Reader Benchmark.
Interference Rejection In this lesson, we explore the types of interference an RFID system can experience and methods of tuning readers for optimal interference rejection.
Self-Inventorying SMART Container The Self-Inventorying SMART Container closes the biggest gap in the supply chain, and is deployable and configurable in under a minute.
Medical Device Kit Tracking Medical Device Kit Tracking is one of the best uses for RFID technology.
RFID Weapons Tracking Part I Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a breakthrough technology for tracking weapons, small arms and firearms. RFID Tags and RFID readers can be used to gain 100% visibility and accountability.
RFID Weapons Tracking Part II Passive radio frequency identification for weapons tracking, this second episode we discuss tagging the AR-15 with RFID and tagging the Glock with passive RFID.
RFID Reader Module Lesson ODIN engineer William Solomon discusses how using RFID reader modules can be more cost-effective than full RFID fixed readers for some specialty applications.

The real key to RFID as ODIN has discovered in over 500 projects is the RF physics. Many people will look to buy an RFID reader, some RFID tags and then move to install them without any understanding of the radio frequency environment. The challenge with RFID is that the communication is invisible. RFID waves may already be propagating in the area you are considering for an RFID system, and without proper scientific testing you may deploy an RFID system with very poor results because of other factors going on locally that are not readily apparent. If you want to try and deploy an RFID network on your own, follow the tips in ODIN's learn RFID section and make sure you look at the physics first. Remember one size does not fit all, try different RFID readers, try different RFID tags, and make sure you choose an RFID software that maximizes the flexibility of the system. ODIN recommends staying away from traditional RFID middleware that many Walmart suppliers adopted in the early part of 2003-2004.
