Abstract

RFID tags can be deployed in such a manner as to deter, or even prevent loss of inventory. For example, by associating an RFID tag with each container of a certain alcoholic beverage, pharmaceutical, etc. each container can be tracked for a variety of purposes over the life of the container; including, e.g., tracking each container in the warehouse to prevent loss of inventory, verifying that containers have been imported properly, and verifying that requisite taxes have been paid. A tag can be associated with a container using various techniques, including, e.g., affixing the tag to the surface of the container, imbedded it in the material of the container, embedding the tag in a label affixed to the container, or affixing or embedding it in a bottle cap. The RFID Tag can be used with metal when a dielectric is selected to isolate the RFID tag from the metal.
