There are supposed to be many benefits to switching over to RFID tags. I've been seeing the cost per tag to be anywhere from two to ten cents.

At if say, 10¢ per piece, 10,000 pieces for a sort is a thousand bucks. Sounds like a lot, but if you had to run 10 inopportune misloads that easily could lead to 1000 dollars or more.
Not to mention the ease of a truck telling you there's a misloads in there or not. Instead of using downtime with a sharpie, and a lot easier than getting 95.5% on the ss

Radio Frequency ID, smart tags that transmit data to a receiver. They were developed about 20 years ago but were considered too expensive to use until they could be made for about ten cents. It's kind of like a barcode with a little radio built into it. Packages can be tracked live and it will be simple to find Missloads with a scanner.

Wally world was bragging about using these for groceries years ago. Still waiting
Is it something that can get torn off of the package while the package is riding through our system? Those gps thingys that they stick on the Covid-19 vaccine pkgs look like they’ll get ripped off the box, I’m always surprised that they’ve lasted the whole journey stuck to the box when we have pal labels transferring to other packages all the time while riding the conveyors.
