This application is useful for not only fuel filling, but also for loading of road tanker trucks with chemicals, oil or even gasoline at filling terminals and tank farms. The same process described above can be used by a chemical manufacturing company for example to automate its loading and dispatches.Imagine the following scenario, which is now followed at many modern chemical processing plants.

The RFID based solution would be to embed each part as it comes in with an electronic label (an RFID tag). The RFID tag would have a unique ID number which is linked to the material database, having all relevant information about the part. The electronic labeled part is now put into a smart shelf.The smart shelf is composed of a built in antenna and an RFID reader, which keeps track of all the RFID tags inside (the medical parts).

There have been successful implementations of this system at some US resorts. In fact, this may soon become the standard method of operation.Just as those bulky room keys and manual locks, got replaced by magnetic swipe card keys, so also will RFID wrist bands replace the magnetic swipe cards. One can imagine that within the next five years there would be hundreds of hotels & resorts who would want to upgrade their systems to RFID wristbands.

The system will get adopted at the large hospitals soon. It may also be forced on to the hospitals by the government or the Medical Insurance companies, who realize the advantages of having such a system in place.
