RFID incorporates technologies for tags, readers and software/services that help in the identification of an object or product. RFID supports in automatic identification and data capturing, an RFID tag attached to a vehicle enables the tracking of that car. For its functionality, RFID devices are used in various lane controller systems and enable vehicle identification for the purpose of toll calculation.
