Billions of trainers tagged in "biggest" IoT deployment

Avery Dennison, provider of RFID technology to the retail clothing sector, has teamed with IoT data systems firm Evrythng to connect 10 billion clothing and footwear products for major brands to cloud-based product ID and tracking services.

By Richard Wilson - Electronics Weekly, Apr. 21, 2016 – 

The IoT deployment will use Evrythng's Janela platform to provide digital identity and data management capabilities to consumer products at the point of manufacturing.

The digital identity will also be used to provide smartphone applications and services to the consumer. For example, consumers will be able to unlock personalised digital content, services, offers and extras, or link to third-party apps for other rewards and benefits.

It will also produce real-time data analytics to tackle problems like product authentication for brand protection and increased efficiency in supply chains.
