Rapidly Emerging Applications Promise Huge Growth for
the RFID Technology Market, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA
launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers,
market share, size and demand forecasts on the global Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) Technology market. The global
market for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology is projected to
reach US$15.5 billion by 2020, driven by new application opportunities in the retail and healthcare
sectors.
A
class of Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) technology, Radio
Frequency Identification (RFID) involves the use of radio waves for
automatically identifying and capturing information about a target object or a
person. Although there are several methods of identification, the most common involves
the use of RFID technology, given its ability to identify and capture data of a
target object in real time and deliver quick and reliable results. Identifying
objects or people with RFID technology helps simplify several operational functions.
Having established itself as a highly efficient technology serving supply chain
& inventory management, asset tracking, and logistics functions in a range
of end-use areas, RFID technology will continue to find new opportunities over
the next few years, given the tremendous value proposition offered to users.
RFID has already gained strong foothold in application areas such as
transportation/automobile, security & access control, animal tracking and
farming, and logistics. In the coming years, the technology is forecast to
break the confines of its mainstream markets and expand into non-traditional markets
such as retail/consumer goods, medical & healthcare, manufacturing, leisure
& sports, airlines & airports, etc. Baggage handling, contactless
ticketing, asset management, contactless payments, electronic identification
documents are some of the use case scenarios for RFID in the airlines and airports
sector.
As stated by the new
market research report on Radio Frequency Identification Technology, the United States represents the largest market
worldwide. Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market with a CAGR of 9.3%
over the analysis period. RFID Tags represent the largest market segment accounting
for a majority share in total revenue as of the year 2015. RFID Readers is
forecast to emerge as the fastest growing product market over the analysis
period. Transportation represents the largest end-end market, while Consumer
Products & Retail represent markets with the strongest growth potential.
