India To Build RFID Tag Manufacturing Plant
With India's economy (and inflation) booming due technology jobs and outsourcing services, it's not surprising that someone decided to finally set up an RFID tag manufacturing plant there. Chennai, once called Madras, is where the new plant will be set up, by Gemini Traze RFID Pvt. Ltd., in an electronics industrial park.
India is the first of the seven SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) nations to build an RFID tag plant. Production output is expected to be 45 million UHF (Ultra High Frequency) tags each year, with the possibility of more. Potential future tag price reduction is as much as sixty percent. [via CIOL]
Personally, I'm surprised that an RFID plant hasn't been built a lot sooner, considering how much moaning there's been about the cost, and how successful India's been in handling technological work outsourced to them from Western countries .
