%X radio frequency identification (rfid) technology, from its beginning in the 1980s, has provided solutions in areas in which no identification (id) technology has done so before. this paper presents three applications in areas having an issue in common: an rfid technology-based solution; these fields were academic topics, logistic support for an event and passenger land transport. each project identified a problem which needed resolving, the methods and electronic devices used for such solution and the outcomes achieved. the developments shown in this paper indicated the multidisciplinary nature of rfid technology because it achieved new solutions for identifying objects or people in many contexts and not just the consumer goods trade which is the application nowa-days most known for using this technology. these projects were developed by members of the universidad nacional de colombia's high frequency electronics and telecommunications research group (cmun) (website: http://www.cmun.unal.edu.co).
