Whitepaper: Protecting against Counterfeits, Generics and Substitutes with RFID

Packed with statistics, usage cases, technical analysis and business rigor,  Protecting against Counterfeits, Generics and Substitutes with RFID is ideal for managers exploring the revenue saving benefits of RFID, engineers desiring to make a strong business case for RFID within their organization, and even designers looking for the most innovative applications of RFID. 

Excerpt:

"Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) presents a cost-effective and innovative solution to authenticate products and consumables. Historically, product manufacturers implemented holograms, laser inscription, complex registration schemes, continual augmentation of adaptors and brand differentiation to separate products and resulting profit streams from counterfeits, generics and competition. These measures are easily duplicated and commonly cost prohibitive. RFID permits manufactures to embed inconspicuous RFID readers directly into their products to then interact with tiny tags that can be molded in virtually any form-factor and attached to numerous consumables. Most importantly, the system provides for programmatic interaction between a product and its consumable. With recent economies of scale and breakthroughs in security, RFID presents the most adaptable and robust answer to counterfeiting, generics and substitutes.

The Counterfeiting Epidemic - Counterfeiting is big business. In 2000, trade in counterfeit goods reached an estimated $450 billion – larger than the GDP of all but 11 countries and about the same size as the total GDP of Australia."
