RFID Technology Application In The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics

Summary

Through the specific application of RFID in the Beijing Winter Olympics, including ticket management, food safety, security defense, anti-counterfeiting, etc., it can be found that RFID technology has strong flexibility. On the one hand, RFID wireless data identification transmission has brought great convenience, on the other hand, the Winter Olympics have also greatly promoted the popularization of RFID technology.

  • 1. Winter Olympics luggage tag

  • The Winter Olympics version of the luggage sticker is embedded with an RFID chip, which supports the whole process of luggage tracking. Its full launch also marks that Air China has achieved full coverage of RFID functions on T3 domestic outbound flights. Passengers can inquire about the transportation status of their luggage on the "Baggage and Status Query" page in the "Air China" APP.
  •  
  • The Air China Winter Olympics version luggage tag is designed and formatted on the basis of the existing luggage tag, adding the Air China Phoenix logo and the Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympic emblems combined icons, which are intended to spread the Olympic concept and help Beijing 2022 Winter The Olympic and Paralympic Games have added many differences from ordinary luggage bars.

  • 2. Digital ticketing system
  •  
  • The PDA ticket checking method used in the Winter Olympics has the advantages of portability and flexibility. In the traditional ticket checking method, it is inconvenient to set up gates, and due to the surge of personnel, the newly added temporary ticket checking point, using the PDA ticket checking method, does not need to build and arrange additional networks.
  • Efficient and high-speed ticket checking operation is carried out through PDA scanning, and ticket checking information is recorded in real time to ensure accurate collection of people flow and bills, greatly reducing errors and improving work efficiency.
  • At the same time, PDA ticket checking is more secure, and it can scan code for ticket checking, read RFID tag ticket checking, prevent forgery, and read personnel ID documents.

  • 3. RFID washing guarantee service
  •  
  • The washing guarantee service of the Winter Olympics is a large-scale intelligent service system with the core of public textile washing such as hotels and hospitals, and integrating linen rental, washing services, logistics and distribution. The introduction of UHF RFID radio frequency identification technology makes laundry management intelligent. This technology is applied to the whole process of linen procurement, collection, washing, sorting and distribution to help customers control the quality of the cleaning process and product inspection levels. , to ensure that the exported textiles are 100% qualified.

  • 4. Real-time sports timing
  •  
  • In this Winter Olympics, RFID technology more and more widely used throughout the competition. For example, in speed skating at the Winter Olympics, athletes wear a small chip with an RFID tag to track their progress without hindering their results.
  •  
  • The equipment suppliers responsible for timing and scoring have many induction coils placed under the ice in the arena. When the athlete passes the coil, the RFID reading device in the coil will conduct non-contact two-way data communication with the chip on the athlete's body through radio frequency to record the corresponding information, and immediately transmit it to the data collection on the sidelines through the short-wave frequency band wireless channel equipment ("black box" in the picture). The "black box" sends the relevant data to the timing and scoring system in the performance processing room, and then provides the precise game time to the media broadcast system and finally displays it on the TV screen. It allows coaches and spectators to keep track of the game situation and player status at any time, and at the same time provides the final basis for the referee's performance judgment.

  • 5. Olympic food safety
  •  
  • During the Winter Olympics, in order to ensure the food safety of athletes and many staff, RFID technology was used to monitor production, processing and transportation. All food during the Olympics was equipped with RFID tags to achieve full monitoring and traceability. In accordance with the Olympic food safety standards, the products will be inspected batch by batch; an Olympic food logistics and distribution center will be established to implement special vehicles, closed transportation, and full monitoring.
  •  
  • During the entire Winter Olympics, RFID technology focused on preventing four types of food emergencies: food-borne diseases, abuse of prohibited substances in animal-derived food, illegal use of highly toxic and high-residue pesticides and food additives, and biological and chemical Sex, radioactivity, etc. are considered malicious contamination of food incidents.

  • Through the specific application of RFID in the Beijing Winter Olympics scene, including ticket management, food safety, security defense, anti-counterfeiting, etc., it can be found that RFID technology has strong flexibility. This is because RFID, as a wireless data acquisition technology, is more about exploiting the potential data potential in different scenarios, which makes it highly open.
  •  
  • The Winter Olympics, as a mega sports event attracting global attention, is also an excellent platform for promoting the marketization of high-tech. It can be seen from the relationship between RFID and the Olympic Games: on the one hand, RFID wireless data identification transmission has brought great convenience, on the other hand, the Winter Olympics also greatly contributed to the popularization of RFID technology.
  •  
  • Looking back at the Beijing Winter Olympics, RFID technology not only ensures the safety of the Olympic Games, but also enables China to accumulate a lot of valuable practical experience in the field of RFID. Through the practical application and inspection of the Olympic Games, RFID has achieved the expected goals and expectations, and has become a booster for the development of the RFID market.
