As for automatically obtaining physical information, Navon [3] introduced various enabling technologies, such as embedded bar-codes, RFID, Global Positioning System (GPS), video and audio technologies, Laser Detection and Ranging (RADAR).
Among these technologies, RFID has been widely adopted in various industries [4].
These studies have been collectively published in special issues of research journals such as Advanced Engineering Informatics and Automation in Construction.
More recently, research has also focused on enhancing sustainability with RFID [5].
