Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects.

The tags contain electronically stored information.

Passive tags collect energy from a nearby RFID reader's interrogating radio waves.

Active tags have a local power source such as a battery and may operate at hundreds of meters from the RFID reader.

Unlike a barcode, the tag need not be within the line of sight of the reader, so it may be embedded in the tracked object.

RFID is one method for Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC).

According to market research from the independent analyst firm Berg Insight, the number of fleet management units deployed in commercial fleets in Europe will grow from 3.05 million units at the end of 2012 to 6.40 million in 2017.

Even though the overall penetration level is just a few percent, some segments such as road transport will attain adoption rates above 31 percent.

Emergency medical services, also known as ambulance services or paramedic services (abbreviated to the initialism EMS, EMAS, EMARS or SAMU in some countries), are a type of emergency service dedicated to providing out-of-hospital acute medical care, transport to definitive care, and other medical transport to patients with illnesses and injuries which prevent the patient from transporting themselves.
