INTRODUCTION
We are working, with EcoHome and Black Light, on the
implementation of the RFID chips, created by Black Light, in the
warehouse of EcoHome. The objective is to improve the inventory
management and the traceability of the products. We are going to
analyse the the viability of implementing the chips.
