1. Overall: 9/10

2. GOODWORK ON  Good information  Very detailed  Nice Introduction  RFID has many similarities with barcoding but with the unique characteristics of read or read/write and read if wet or thru clothing. (consider re- writing sentence)

3. GOODWORK ON  Good imaging  Very enlightening comparisons  Nothing bad about this slide

4. GOODWORK ON  Nice image  Good amount of advantages  Nothing

5. GOODWORK ON  Nice image  Some civil libertarians fear that RFID use may reduce the privacy of the individual. ( Not in same print as rest of slide)

6. GOODWORK ON  Links are there  Nothing

7.  Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that allows for the transfer of data using radio frequency electromagnetic fields.  Because RFID is a wireless network, tags that store electronic information are attached to objects.  Since RFID tags can be attached to clothing, possessions, or even implanted within people, the possibility of reading personally-linked information without consent has raised privacy concerns.  RFID has been compared to a similar system: barcode labeling.  RFID tags contain at least two parts: an integrated circuit for storing and processing information, and an antenna for receiving and transmitting the signal. The tag information is stored in a non-volatile memory.  An RFID reader transmits an encoded radio signal to interrogate the tag.  RFID can be useful in a clinical setting by enhancing patient identification, managing assets and equipment, securing newborns and reducing drug and blood administration errors.  Concerns with RFID usage in medicine are primarily aimed towards privacy rights, negative affects on other medical instruments and prices associated with RFID usage.
