The pilot project showed that autonomous drones could scan RFID tags at speeds of 1,000 items per second with 99.9% accuracy.

In terms of supply chain management, the application of RFID technology has always had important advantages in intelligent inventory: improved efficiency, high accuracy, full-link traceability, intelligent management, etc., combined with AI technology to achieve value-added functions such as abnormal alarms, inventory forecasting, and precision marketing.

In February, a pilot project jointly carried out by Verity, a leading company in the field of autonomous drones, Swiss high-end shoe manufacturer On and logistics giant Maersk, was a vivid reflection of this trend. They have teamed up to test RFID Solution News: Verity, On, and Maersk Test RFID Drones for Warehouse Tracking with autonomous drones in a California warehouse, aiming to improve inventory tracking without disrupting operations. The three-month pilot project used Verity’s AI-driven drones to scan millions of RFID tags, boosting accuracy and visibility in real time.

During this period, the drone system completed more than 1,500 autonomous flights and performed more than 80 million RFID readings on approximately 1.25 million independent tags. This data not only highlights the advanced nature of the technology, but also reflects its efficiency and reliability in actual operation.

The integration of RFID technology enables drones to identify individual items in boxes and containers, creating a more comprehensive digital twin for warehouse operations. This not only improves the accuracy of inventory tracking, but also provides unprecedented capabilities for tracking items throughout the entire warehouse management cycle.
