Scientists Print Cheap RFID Tags On Paper | TechWeekEurope UKTechnology could make RFID tags cheap enough to replace barcodes in the future

Researchers claim that this works out to be cheaper than any other method of producing RFID tags, allowing the technology to replace both barcodes and QR codes.
