Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) vehicles are intensely becoming more and more pervasive in many fields concerning daily-life and work environments. This paper presents a state-of-the-art analysis of vehicles and robots adopting Ultra-High-Frequency (UHF) RFID technology. First, tagged vehicles are analysed to assess the main features and possible application scenarios. Then, vehicles equipped with UHF-RFID readers are presented with special focus on UHF-RFID robots which represent the prevailing category. Besides classical inventory operations, localization solutions are described together with novel applications in both social and industrial contexts.

Abstract
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) vehicles are intensely becoming more and more pervasive in many fields concerning daily-life and work environments. This paper presents a state-of-the-art analysis of vehicles and robots adopting Ultra-High-Frequency (UHF) RFID technology. First, tagged vehicles are analysed to assess the main features and possible application scenarios. Then, vehicles equipped with UHF-RFID readers are presented with special focus on UHF-RFID robots which represent the prevailing category. Besides classical inventory operations, localization solutions are described together with novel applications in both social and industrial contexts.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
