Χρησιμοποιείται για την ασύρματη αναγνώριση και αναγνώριση αντικειμένων ή προσώπων μέσω ραδιοσυχνοτήτων. Τα τσιπ RFID είναι μικρά σε μέγεθος και μπορούν να ενσωματωθούν σε διάφορα αντικείμενα, όπως κάρτες, ετικέτες, είδη ένδυσης, εμπορεύματα, κ.λπ.</span></div></span><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; margin: 1.25em 0px; text-align: justify; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #0d0d0d; font-size: medium;">Οι συσκευές RFID λειτουργούν με τον αναγνώστη RFID, ο οποίος εκπέμπει ραδιοσήματα για να εντοπίσει και να αναγνωρίσει τις ετικέτες ή τα τσιπ RFID που βρίσκονται στο πεδίο του.

Περί του τσιπ RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification)

Το τσίπ RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) είναι μια μικρή ηλεκτρονική συσκευή που περιέχει ένα μικροκύκλωμα και μια κεραία. Χρησιμοποιείται για την ασύρματη αναγνώριση και αναγνώριση αντικειμένων …

During the early 20th century, Jewish immigrants often faced exclusion from more established creative fields, like mainstream publishing houses or advertising agencies. They were attracted to more accessible and inclusive industries — one of which was the burgeoning comic book industry.</span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-block: 0px 0.9rem;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Even so, the comic book industry wasn’t an easy path for Jewish creators just getting started. The first comics were tiny strips in newspapers, and the publishing houses often took advantage of their Jewish writers, paying them very little.</span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-block: 0px 0.9rem;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">In 1933, <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 600;">Maxwell Gaines</span>, a Jewish print salesman, pioneered the comic book format as we know it today. In an effort to sell more newspapers, Gaines began reprinting collections of popular comic strips — typically humor or Western-themed. </span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-block: 0px 0.9rem;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">At just 10 cents per booklet, these collections quickly became a hit. Gaines would later start All-American Publications, introducing popular characters like Wonder Woman (played by <a href="https://jewishunpacked.com/the-woman-behind-wonder-woman-gal-gadots-jewish-journey/" style="box-shadow: none; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-color: rgb(255, 53, 67); transition: all 240ms ease 0s;">Israeli actress <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 600;">Gal Gadot</span></a> in recent film adaptations) and The Flash.</span></span></p><h3 class="wp-block-heading" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.2; margin-block: 0.5rem 1rem; margin-top: 1.5em;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">The Jewish roots of the comic book industry</span></span></h3><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-block: 0px 0.9rem;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Jewish entrepreneurs played a significant role in shaping the early comic book industry.
