Applications

Vehicle-mounted RFID readers are widely used in industries like warehousing, transportation, and manufacturing. By equipping vehicles with UHF RFID readers, companies can monitor and track assets across large, dynamic spaces, such as distribution centers and construction sites. For example, in warehouses, vehicle-mounted readers on forklifts can scan pallets as they are transported, automatically updating inventory systems without manual scanning. In logistics, trucks equipped with UHF readers can track cargo as it moves through different locations, ensuring visibility throughout the supply chain. These readers are also used in shipping yards, where cranes fitted with RFID readers track containers, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing handling times.

GAO Case Studies 

• Houston, Texas: In a large warehouse in Houston, vehicle-mounted RFID readers were installed on forklifts to track the movement of goods across multiple storage zones. This allowed the company to automate their inventory updates, improving stock accuracy by 30% and reducing human labor for manual checks.
• Atlanta, Georgia: A logistics company in Atlanta implemented vehicle-mounted RFID systems on their fleet of delivery trucks. The system provided real-time data on the location of shipments, improving delivery time predictions and ensuring higher customer satisfaction.
• Calgary, Canada: In a construction site in Calgary, cranes equipped with UHF vehicle-mounted RFID readers were used to track the movement of materials between different work zones. This implementation helped reduce project delays by streamlining the material handling process and improving site logistics.
