Automatic Identification Technology
AIT is a developing concept for employing sophisticated identification
Automatic
technologies to achieve ITV of deployment and distribution operations. It is a
identification
means of affixing a technical application (e.g., radio frequency tag, microcircuit
technology
tag, or bar code) containing movement information to a container or pallet. In this
(AIT)
manner a single entry or retrieval event can result in the capture of a stream of
data. A human operator may or may not be part of the actual entry/retrieval
event.
