ABI Research: Asset Management for Automotive, Defense, Healthcare, and Transportation Vertical Markets Closed loop applications, including asset management and work in process tracking, have been part of the overall RFID market for more than five years.

The asset management market has also received greater media attention and general interest over the past year. This study focuses on the market for active, rather than passive, tag systems.
