Smart Label, also called Smart Tag, is an extremely flat configured Transponder under a conventional print-coded label, which includes chip, antenna and bonding wires as a so-called ''inlay''. The labels—made of paper, fabric or plastics—are prepared as a paper roll with the inlays laminated between the rolled carrier and the label media for use in specially designed printer units. In many processes in logistics and transportation the barcode or the 2D-barcode is well established as the key means for identification in short distance. Whereas the automation of such optical coding is limited in appropriate distance for reading success and usually requires manual operation for finding the code or, alternatively, scanner gates, that scan all the surface of a coded object, the RFID-inlay, as an additional means, allows for better tolerance in fully automated reading from certain specified distance. However, the mechanical vulnerability of the RFID-inlay is higher than the ordinary label, which has its weaknesses in its resistance to scratch. Thus, the smartness of the smart label is earned in compensation of typical weaknesses with the combination of the technologies of plain text, optical character recognition and radio code. ==Smart Label Processing== The processing of these labels is basically as with ordinary labels in all stages of production and application, except the inlay is inserted in an automated processing step to ensure identical positioning for each label and careful processing to prevent any damage to the bonding. The printing is processed in two steps, including * normal ink-jet printing, except the space with the bonded chip, with clearly intelligible text and * either barcode or 2D barcode for later semi-automatic reading with handheld readers or fix-mount scanners * writing coherently concatenated information to the RFID-chip * reading the written information on the RFID-chip subsequently in the printer for control purpose (read after write) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smart label」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
