How does RFID work?

The microchip has an unalterable unique number coded into it. This microchip number is read by means of a scanner (MPR reader).  The scanner emits an electro-magnetic wave that instantaneously “excites” the microchip. The microchip responds to the scanner with its number, which can then be read off the scanner’s screen.
