predetermined activity.
Keyed
A physical object shaped in a manner so as to prevent unwanted movement or to ensure
desired movement.
Kg (Kilogram) A unit of weight measure within the metric system.
Kilo-Bytes Used to describe data transfer rates or storage capacity of approximately 1000 bytes.
Knob
A rounded handle to facilitate the manual opening, closing, securing, or otherwise movement
of the object to which it is attached.
Knurled An item that has recessed grooves or elevated areas on its surface to increase manual grip.

LCD
(Liquid Crystal Display) A display technology involving optical glass panels whose opacity can
be controlled by electrical signals. A liquid crystal surface is sandwiched between two
polarizing panels and when voltage is applied to certain areas, the crystal darkens. A light
source behind the panel transmits through the transparent crystals and is mostly blocked by
the darkened ones.

Laminate A film or sheet placed onto and adhered flatly over another material.
Life
Relative to RFID, the functional period within which maintenance, adjustment, and repair is not
reasonably expected.
