Globally, educational institutions are taking stringent measures for adoption of automation and advanced technologies aiming to improve safety and security of students. These institutes are adopting various solutions to improve the overall supervision of students, essentially through RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) devices. The student RFID includes features such as automatic attendance management systems, student location tracking, parents tracking system, and message services. Apart from the education sector, the RFID technology is widely adopted in many industries including financial services, retail, healthcare, along with logistics, and distribution.
Tech-based obstacles hindering the growth
With the increasing usage of the electromagnetic spectrum like Wi-Fi that contains high energy frequency, the RFID systems can easily be jammed which results in causing inconvenience for students. Thus, these circumstances act as a deterrent to the growth of the global student RFID tracking market.
Another issue that RFID systems face in educational institutions is from reader collisions. These collisions occur when signals from multiple readers reach RFID tags located at the same place at the same time. This can cause problems such as signal interference and multiple readings of the same tag that may lead to a situation of student details being overlapped.
RFID technology system entails the acquisition of wide-ranging hardware and software to sustain the various functionalities of these devices. The system usually includes RFID tags, readers, sorting systems, security gates, self-service kiosks for self-return and issue, along with portable scanning units. Thus, the RFID technology is a complicated process and expensive to install.
Lastly, a RFID tracking system can give away a student’s real-time location, which could be a classroom, washroom, or outside of the school/college premises. Owing to this, many students of higher education institutions are avoiding wearing these cards.
