Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for attaching an identification tag to a solid surface and protecting the identification tag. The identification tag has a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The method comprises: positioning the first surface of the identification tag in contact with an attachment site of the solid surface; applying a predetermined amount of a first adhesive substance on the second surface, the first adhesive substance being plastic during application and curable after application, the first adhesive substance having a first viscosity at the time of application; forming the first adhesive substance, such that the first adhesive substance covers the identification tag and abut a part of the solid surface circumscribing the identification tag; and curing the first adhesive substance.

Abstract: An RFID registration apparatus for registering units comprising RFID tags. The registration apparatus comprises: a detector space defined by a top, a bottom and four vertical sides including a first vertical side and a second vertical side, wherein the second vertical side is opposite the first vertical side; a receiver adapted to receive a number of units and be placed inside the detector space; a first antenna configured for reading RFID tags by emitting and receiving electromagnetic radiation within a first frequency range; and at least four plane reflector surfaces. Wherein a first primary reflector surface and a first secondary reflector surface span a first angle, and a second primary reflector surface and a second secondary reflector surface span a second angle. The first angle and the second angle are in the range of 70-140 degrees.
