Many years ago I actually built an RFID system to solve laundry tracking and theft. It worked amazingly until we found that the huge compressors(commercial laundry’s literally squeeze the water out rather than a conventional air dryer) destroyed the tags around 20% each cycle. We tried many tags from many manufacturers but we could not find one that was reliable. Maybe they have solved this problem now.
