Pleasanton, United States – ProQure, a technology provider of IoT cloud management for physical objects, and Identiv, a global provider in physical security and secure identification in the IoT, have joined forces to release two proprietary type 2 NFC tags, PQ201 and PQ201s.
The PQ201/201s series is accessible via standard NDEF Readers without the need for dedicated apps, and is well-suited for applications in the specialty retail and consumer packaged goods industries, offering cloud-centric, cost-effective and easy-to-deploy solutions for brand protection and consumer engagement.
The PQ201 NFC tag has been designed to tackle cost-related challenges that have previously made it difficult for businesses to deploy large-scale NFC projects. PQ201 offers a cost-effective solution without compromising on performance. Furthermore, the tag is tamper-proof, ensuring businesses can protect their assets and safeguard against fraud.
“We are excited to partner with Identiv to bring these innovative NFC tags to market,” says Ami Barda, CEO of ProQure. “Our team has worked tirelessly to create an extendable design backed by Identiv’s versatile assembly, converting and encoding processes that meet the needs of modern businesses. We are confident that PQ201 and PQ201s will become essential tools for companies looking to digitise their products using world-class solutions and access key features at a cost they can afford.”
“This collaboration represents a major milestone for Identiv,” says Amir Khoshniyati, vice president and general manager IoT Business, Identiv. “We are thrilled to work with ProQure and bring our expertise in IoT Solutions into the development of these Type 2 NFC tags. Our partnership has produced a product that provides businesses with the highest levels of security, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.”
Following pre-order interest from industry players, the PQ201 and PQ201s NFC tags will be unveiled at RFID Journal LIVE!, a conference and exhibition focused on radio frequency identification and related technologies, which will take place at the Orange County Convention Centre in Orlando from May 9-11.
