Auburn scores big with RFID research facility

RFID Research Center will move from the University of Arkansas to Auburn University in June, the university announced. Radio frequency identification technology is driving change in businesses across the nation in supply chain operations and numerous other uses. “RFID technology is increasingly critical to the ability of business and industry to excel in a global, networked marketplace,” Auburn University President Jay Gogue said, in a statement. “The new lab will serve as an engine of economic growth as it develops technologies and processes that improve efficiency and customer satisfaction.”
