[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 3429750, member: 63706"] RFID chips don't emit anything on their own, no power. The sensors emit a field that excites the chips that then cause the chip to emit their ID code. You could place an array of sensors in the package car that could detect the relative position of each package and supply that information to a tablet used by a supervisor to find misloads. But you could also have an indicator light or buzzer that would alert the loader to the presence of a misload as they load it. Drawbacks: No clue on cost, and it would still require spa labels being applied to the correct packages. I was just spit balling an idea off the top of my head, not demanding it be put into practice. I think it has better potential than loaders using scanners or crayons. Both those things add to the amount of time it takes to load a package, which is utterly counterproductive as neither guarantees much improvement in number of misloads. It's all still down to the loader and the pace of the flow. [/QUOTE]
