How do NFC tags store and transmit asset information?

NFC tags store and transmit asset information using a combination of a small chip and an antenna.

The NFC tag contains a microchip that stores data. This data can include asset details such as identification numbers, location, maintenance history, and other relevant information.

The amount of data that can be stored varies depending on the type of NFC tag. For example, NTAG213 tags can store up to 144 bytes of user data

When an NFC-enabled device, such as a smartphone or dedicated NFC reader, comes into close proximity (typically within a few centimeters),the data is retrieved by the NFC reader which can then be processed and used for various asset management tasks, such as tracking the asset's location, checking its status, or updating its maintenance records.
