Electromagnetic:
WHY RFID?
magnetic:
Magnetic ADC Technology involves using magnetic stripe cards, but also may
include the use of magnetic ink character recognition (micr).
micr is most widely used in the banking industry. example: credit cards, bank
cards
low cost
low storage capacity
contact reader
can be rewritten
easily damaged (less easily for high coercivity stripes)
Smart Cards:
Smart card technology has the ability to store a massive amount of information.
Smart cards are similar, albeit slightly thicker, than credit cards.
They also differ in that they contain a microprocessor, memory circuits, and a
battery. Smart cards are used on a daily basis by over 60% of the French
population
can be rewritten
Optical:
Bar coding is an example of optical technology.Sophisticated laser
readers read the bar code and send the data represented by that
code directly to the computer for processing. The optical-mark form is
another example of optical technology.
The source document becomes the input medium.
The source document is directly read by an optical-mark reader
(OMR) or opticalcharacter reader (OCR).
The computer records the data to magnetic tape, which is then input
to the
computer.
OCR and OMR input are generally suitable only for high-volume input
activities.
