I'd love to see an explanation of how a passive device could provide that.
I can believe that the RFID scanner could add it's own location/speed/etc to a scan.
But I can't imagine how a passive device could originate it.

ETA Some googling turns up Active RFID which is powered RFID device, but were are back to something that requires a battery or an electrical system on the object being tracked.
