In order to provide a simple, visual guide to identify RFID-enabled tags, labels and readers, AIM Global has developed the AIM RFID Emblem™.

The AIM RFID Emblem consists of a unique, visually distinctive logo that may have the "generic" wording 'RFID' or a two-character code to indicate the frequency range, air interface protocol standard and, typically, data content. These are defined in the AIM RFID Emblem Table.

The purpose of the AIM RFID Emblem is two-fold.  First, it clearly identifies the presence of an RFID tag or reader.  Second, for commercial and industrial users, it provides guidance to workers on the type and data content of the tag as a visual aid to reading the correct tag if multiple types or data contents are present. 

A "generic" symbol is also provided for applications where additional data about the type of tag, data content or reader are not registered with AIM Global or is not relevant for the application.

The AIM RFID Emblem remains the Intellectual Property of AIM, Inc. but is free to use by any organization, company or individual as long as it is applied in conformance with the requirements set forth in the most current version of the AIM RFID Emblem standard. Please see the AIM RFID Emblem standard for additional information, conditions and caveats.

The AIM RFID Emblem standard is continuously maintained by the AIM Global RFID Experts Group (REG).  Requests for additional assignments are accepted at any time .

In order to best serve your organization, AIM Global requests that you complete the "Usage Form" . We plan to stay in contact with the organizations and individuals that are using the RFID Emblem to keep you informed of any changes or updates.
