RFID for transportation:

Industry 4.0 starts with intelligent container tracking, says Schreiner ProTech and offers a broad portfolio of RFID labels. They can be used to carry out automated bookings as empties and for incoming and outgoing goods faster than bulk registration. In addition, the contents on the container can be documented and each container can be transported precisely to its assembly or production location and booked exactly to the product or order. Equipped with destination data, a container can also tell itself where it needs to go and networking with logistics providers becomes easier.
