Well done. I'm designing neuro-networks and will be using NFC as part of the system and this was very helpful in helping me understand how to utilize these technologies in tandem. I was a trainer in the Navy and by my standards this is a very high quality informational video. Thank you.

Excellent explanation with practical use case examples. Thank you.

clear explanation, I have learned a lot with just a single 15 min video ! thank you very much

Perfect summary these three exciting technologies. Thank you!

Thank you very much. I was looking for a well organized overview on this subject just like that.

Nicely done. It is great simple to follow explanation. I am constantly having to explain these three technologies. Fast forward to 2018 and things are definitely converging in use and capabilities.

Excellent video! Thank you very much for posting it.

THANKS Jennifer for making such a good video on rfid

Thanks a lot Jennifer for creating such an informative video.

Excellent presentation. Thanks for sharing Jennifer

Great explanation. Nice educational teaching voice. I learned a lot from it. Thank you.

Thank you Jennifer! This video was super informative and gave me ideas!

Very helpful and informative!

Very informative, thanks for sharing

This was very helpful. Thank you for your educational video.

Thanks Jennifer, great, clear, concise explanation. Thanks. Don't listen to some angry, sad guys around there.

Very well Explained and its complete in all aspects!

Jennifer, that was very helpful and professionally done. I agree that when one starts talking about EAS vs EPC, or EMV vs RFID, it can lead to a lot more detail that is useful to engineers or software developers, but can confuse the general public. With that said, I'd like to mention the business context of the various technologies at a very high level, which may be helpful to SMBs or individuals who want to think about the practical aspects of implementing for issues of tracking, theft control, etc. When looking at criteria that includes flexibility of use, affordability, and return on investment, the technology that stands out for SMBs is clearly passive RFID, due to the new breed of readers that get up to 30 feet of read range for about $1000, and use your mobile phones as tracking devices (iPod Touch for example can be had for $160), enterprise-quality apps for tracking assets and goods and maintaining workflows at low prices, and the latest fixed-reader IOT devices running about $700 each. Thus, for less than $3000, a small enterprise (or even a homeowner who wants to track items for their homeowners insurance), can now get a complete system including mobile reader, fixed reader, tags, mobile phone, and app for under $3000. Only five years ago, such a system would have required an ante of $20K or more just to start. Anyone interested can check out mobile devices from TSL, ASR, Zebra, or Alien, the first and only IOT fixed reader here ukposts.info/have/v-deo/oWJ5lm6drKh_sHU.html, and the new breed of inexpensive yet powerful tracking apps at supplyinsight.com.

That was incredible. Thank you Jennifer

Thanks for this. I appreciate the info.

Thank you very much for differentiating what RFID, NFC and BLE. I've learned a lot. But can NFC tags be used for attendance? for timing in and out of work?

Nicely explained! :)

Very good presentation. I hope you will do more presentations on different subjects.

@Jennifer Hueber Very informative video Ms. Huber. Do you think that RFID is the best technology for detecting if a movable object is out of range without, alternatively, using some sort of optical or proximity sensor?

Thank you! It useful the information!!

very interesting video..

great vid, thanks!

Good job, thanks

I have a question. If the only function of BLE is to send an UUID, is it a simplex mode? Cause Bluetooth has the capability to be even full-dulpex...

Great video, I want to have a permanent solution in my work vehicle so I can see if any tool is missing from within the vehicle. What method would you recommend? I’m an iOS user.

Very clear. Any pdf

Good job thanks

what is the RFID reader used at shops called? the tall towers which has ads on it?

Thank you for sharing.. So if we turn off in the cell settings "Always WIFI Scanning", Always Bluetooth scanning", the signal won't notice the cell entering a store? Or if a person has never connected to the stores Open WIFI, and turns on airplane mode will the cell be noticed walking thru the stores doorway where those security bars are set up for merchandise to set them off if not deactivated at checkout?

Do you work for Microsoft? I'm just curious

thank you mam now i know

I’m in transportation industry. So with BLE (beacon) if my Bluetooth is on in the vehicle they can see what I’m doing in my phone?

I like the vid

Does the library system use nfc or rfid for its checkout system?

Is there a need to have something block a thief from stealing our credit card information from our wallets? If so, what would you say to look out for or is there something we can do ourselves to prevent it? It is the season unfortunately.

Got you. So basically the whole differences here are 'compatibility' issue. Like for example, BLE can only transmit frequencies between 'registered' devices or terminals, if not, no matter how close beacons fall into the frequency range, they won't interact. Just like a neighbor next door can't connect my Air pods to his smart phone, because it's not registered. Whereas RFID as long as two 'things' are tagged, they all interact each other within the given range. NFC, basically a fancy barcode. lol Thanx

Thumbs up

Huber blood flows in my veins, from my Dad's side.

You didn't say anything about the RFID chip on my debit/credit card. Can it really be read by someone standing next to me in an elevator with an inexpensive device they bought from Amazon or eBay? Can they drain my bank account with that info?

Not what I was expecting to learn, but good material nonetheless.

Sorry, but "what is" is more than what we can do with. Near Field Communication sounds more like "do one and just one thing", such as opening a door, or confirm that I pay. No other user intervention than the only one action. Blue tooth can allow user interaction (multiple options, menus, many possible actions) while the "session" is potentially established (such as receiving a phone call in my car, or playing song from my cellphone, etc. while and my car, or my speakers, don't look like "beacons" to me, double sorry.) On the other hand, RFID are, well, much like NFC, since they don't generally imply a user "menu" or "variation" to the single thing they can do in response to the "burst" they can get. So, you see, I still have the problem to see why someone will use passive RFID instead of NFC? is it a question of range, price, THAT is WHAT the technology is, but you focused on what people do with it rather than what it is. Sorry, you use the wrong title, because it is mostly out of focus of WHAT is the DIFFERENCE between the various technologies. Not useful. Should keep on the focus of the title, or advertise that this is a list what people do with each technology.

superberb

I think it little confusing jumping from one technology to another

that wasnt exactly few minutes but thx

I just found a rfid on my Victoria secret bra can u give any logical explanation why 1 would be on individual bras

Why people think RFID is mark of the beast?

This video is incorrect and mis-informative about the excitation of security tags for theft prevention, almost all of these tags do not contain any RFID Components, the Square Coil Patches are resonant tank circuits and operate ~13.8MHz, if they are not blasted at the till, it interferes with the resonance of the gate and triggers the alarm. The larger plastic tags, just have a coil and capacitor in them. The lower frequency systems use a special type of metal and a magnet. These devices are resettable with an AC field. None of them are RFIDs. Hope this helps.

ALL OF THIS TALK, DOESN'T SEEM TO REGISTER IN MY MIND. ....IT ALL JUST SOUNDS LIKE ELECTRONIC TYRANNY, TO ME!...
