Audi Launches RFID Deployment for Tracking Assembled Vehicles Worldwide

Automobile manufacturer Audi is preparing to install a radio frequency identification solution for tracking its newly manufactured vehicles through finish work and shipping, at multiple global factories, based on a template installation in use at its new Hungarian plant. The EPC Gen 2 ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) RFID system, provided by German RFID company noFilis, was taken live when Audi Hungaria Motor Kft. launched the production in Győr, Hungary, in June 2013. The system is now being used to track the assembly and inspection of the new A3 sedan and A3 cabriolet that the plant produces, as well as the vehicles' outbound preparation and shipping.
