Journey of Revolutionising RFID

Journey Journey

RFID in Nation Building

Nation Building

India adopted RFID for Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) in 2013-2014. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and stakeholders launched FASTag, benefiting over 3 Crore vehicles and INR 110 Crore daily toll collection. i-TEK supplied 1.50 Crore FASTags.

RFID technology improved Indian Ports' efficiency through Gate Automation Systems and container tracking. In 2017, the Government mandated RFID E-Seals for exporters, with i-TEK delivering solutions to 3,500 exporters.

Indian Railways utilizes RFID for Wagon Tracking and fare collection. RFID applications expand across industries, including Infrastructure Management, Passports, Healthcare, Sports, Waste Management, Animal Identification, Education, and Retail.

The global RFID market grew from USD 7 Billion (2012) to USD 12 Billion (2020) and is expected to reach USD 16 Billion by 2029. India will contribute significantly.

i-TEK, working since 2000, appeals to innovators to conceptualize RFID applications, remembering "It's Physics Not Magic."

Twenty years ago, RFID technology was nascent. Its advent began in 1973 with passive transponders at New York Port Authority. Initially limited to Low Frequency (120-150 KHz) and High Frequency (13.56 MHz), RFID evolved with EPC global standards (2002-2005) and EPC Gen2 adoption (2006).
