RFID Fibers in Currency Notes

An example of RFID Technology that can be woven into currency notes is the RFID Fiber... This vendor, INKode, has RFID technology that could be applied in the RFID currency tracking... Here is an explanation of how their technology works:

By embedding INKODE’s microscopic structured resonators into materials, then using extremely low power to energize them, these resonators will respond when excited by Radio Frequency waves. The resonators respond in a pre-determined manner.

These resonators can be embedded in paper products, glass, rubber, plastics and numerous other manufactured materials. The amount of RF energy needed to excite these truly passive devices is less than the amount of energy emitted by a keychain pocket flashlight.

This technology opens the door to a new perspective in automatic identification systems. INKODE calls the responses from these structures “Resonant Signature™." The use of these Resonant Signatures™ creates an unlimited variety for automatic identification.

This opens the door for RFID currency tracking through the use of RFID Fiber technology...

Other vendors are involved in the field of RFID fibers that could be applied to currency tracking:

Bsecure - anti-counterfeit, anti-diversion and brand protection: Bsecure turns MT amorphous microwire — Authentifiber — into a low-cost chipless RFID fiber for "smart" labels.
