In the race-timing industry, I can't get a passive RFID chip for less than $6. I can't get an active RFID chip for less than $20. That's my cost, on volume, as a timer.
A lot of companies blow smoke about producing disposable (cheap) chips, but I don't know of any timer who uses those chips for large volume events (more than 1,000 participants).
I imagine that tracking inventory on a conveyor belt is a lot like timing runners at a finish line.
