Wal-Mart Is To Start Using RFID Tags

Wal-Mart will shortly be adding Radio Frequency IDentity tags to some of its clothing. RFID tags can hold more information than bar codes and so are more useful for stock control.

These tags can be put under labels or sewn into clothing because they can be very, very small.
