Direction detection
Direction detection refers to the automatic determination of the direction in which a tagged object moves through a read zone. In the RFID environment, simple detection by an RFID gate is not sufficient for this purpose, because it initially only identifies the presence of a tag. Only through the chronological evaluation of multiple antenna fields, sensors or defined detection zones can it be determined whether an object can be assigned clearly to a material flow or a transfer point. This improves process reliability, reduces incorrect postings and supports more precise control of logistical workflows. Direction detection enables clear postings at gates, transition points and conveyor lines.
