3. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)
Technology:
• It’s a small device that is consisting of a small chip and an
antenna.
• It has been available for more then 50 years.
• RFID devices serve the same purpose as a bar code or
magnetic strip.
For example onm the back of the credit card or a ATM card.
It provides a unique identifier for the object.
The device doesn’t nead to positioned closely to the scanner
unlike bar code and magnetic strips.
4. How does an RFID chip work?
• This system consist of three components.
• RFID chip.
• RFID reader.
• RFID antenna.
RFID chips contain an integrated circuit connected to an antenna to
be able to communicate with the reader or interrogator.
Reador converts the analogue radio waves to digital file which can use
by a computer. The information can be collected from the tags is being
transferred to a computer where the data can be processed.
5. IMPLANTS IN LIVING BEINGS.
• 1.LIVING BODIES:
RFID device can be implanted in a living body such as animals and
humans under the skin.
The chip is rise sized and interested with a special type of needle
called hypodermic. they need to encased in special kind of casing that
will not irritate with living tissues. the casing must be also transparent
to the scanning radio-frequency beam, which is used to activate the
chip.
One problem with RFID placed in living bodies, they could moved
around the skin.
This is avoided by using a special material that lets the surrounding
tissues bond with it.
A security firm in Mexico uses RFID chips to track kidnapped children
by implanting them in the child or their clothes.

Black market Tracking
• An other tracking use of the RFID chips is to use them the track
valuable stuff from endangered species to really valuable stuff.
9. FOR ANIMALS

collars with tracking information in case they get lost.
• The chips also store the animal information as the vaccine and
checkups they had as well as their owners information.
• RFID chips also used as a key for the animal to go through a
pet door the door would scan with a specific RFID chip and until
it reads it wont open denying access to wild animals and
