Research and Markets has announced the recent publication of a report entitled 'Printed and Chipless RFID Forecasts, Technologies & Players 2007-2017', which shows how chipless RFID smart labels - which can cost much less than chip-based RFID tags - could grow from 0.4% of the RFID market in 2006 to as much as 45% of the market by 2016.
With cumulative sales of 100 million chipless tags to date (compared to 2,322 million chip-based RFID tags), chipless devices have the potential to grow to 45% of the market in 2016, the report says. Ultimately, the end aim will be for RFID to be almost costless, in the same way that barcodes are today. reaswaran This article is copyright 2007 UsingRFID.com.
Big players grow the market
Some of the biggest names in the business now offer both chip and Chipless RFID in order to cover a full range of user needs. From AstraZeneca to Calvin Klein, companies are already using them in large volumes and many paper and packaging companies have licensed the various processes.
Chipless RFID tags can operate to over 10 meters in range and with 256 bits of data, and can cost as little as one-tenth of their silicon chip equivalents. Chipless RFID can be materials-based, or can consist of transistorless circuits. Transparent polymer transistor circuits are now also available from Philips, PolyIC, OrganicID and Motorola among others. These directly mimic the circuit on a chip.
The chipless future
These factors, the report says, mean that chipless technology is addressing mainstream RFID applications and is likely to grow the market rapidly through massive price reductions.
The report on chipless RFID contains detailed market forecasts from 2006 to 2016, an analysis of the technologies being implemented today, and several detailed case histories and company profiles of the various trials and successes in the industry. The authors also offer their assessment of who will be the winners and losers in the market, and what the future will bring.

When paired with RFID technology, sensors and data loggers can monitor conditions like temperature and impacts.
