With the powerful new technology of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags around the corner, one might think that, rather like the fax, the barcode is an inferior technology that only maintains its hold because of its prevalence. But it would be wrong to write off the barcode just yet, as useful developments in the technology continue to be made.”
