In 1945, Walter Pepperl and Ludwig Fuchs founded a small radio workshop in Mannheim, Germany, based on the principles of inventiveness, entrepreneurial foresight and self-reliance. The experience they acquired was transformed into new ideas, and they developed products for customers. The eventual result was the invention of the proximity switch, the starting point of the company's success story. Pepperl+Fuchs now is known for a variety of electrical explosion protection and sensor technology, including radio-frequency identification, or RFID, which is the topic of this discussion.
