In episode two of Where Today Meets<\/strong><\/em> Tomorrow<\/strong><\/em>, Ginni Saraswati talks with not one, but two experts on manufacturing in the modern age. They discuss how to safely restart production lines during a pandemic. Spoiler alert: real-time locating systems (RTLS) and radio frequency identification (RFID) can go a long way in helping manufacturers keep employees safe while operating efficiently.
