Abstract

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a means of identifying a person or object using a radio frequency transmission. The technology can be used to identify, track, sort or detect a wide variety of objects. Communication takes place between a reader (interrogator) and a transponder (Silicon Chip connected to an antenna) often called a tag. Tags can either be active (powered by battery) or passive (powered by the reader field) and come in various forms including Smart cards, Tags, Labels, watches and even embedded in mobile phones. An inventory management system is an integrated package of software and hardware used in warehouse operations, and elsewhere, to monitor the quantity, location and status of inventory as well as the related shipping, receiving, picking and putaway processes. In common usage, the term may also refer to just the software components. The Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM), is one of the leading institutions in tropical forestry research, both within the country and abroad. The institutions is a statutory body governed under Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment. The implementation of RFID in inventory management system is to assist the institution in keeping track of trees record at their place. Several analysis and problem statement are study thoroughly in order to come out with an application that will able solve several issues at FRIM. The outcome of this application project should reduce time for data gathering of trees and also reducing the cost of manpower.
