FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
[Glendale, USA] - whatt.io INC, a leader in the field of Digital Product Passports, today announced an exciting development in NFC technology with the pre-release of whatt.io incendo. This innovative hardware product is designed to read and write NFC tags, catering specifically to the needs of high-volume, industrial-scale production environments.
Introducing whatt.io incendo: A Game Changer for Industrial NFC Programming
Until now, the programming of NFC tags in products was predominantly managed through the whatt.io App on smartphones. The whatt.io incendo emerges as a robust complement to this solution, specifically addressing the challenges in scenarios where large volumes of NFC tags need to be programmed efficiently in mass production settings.
A Unique Blend of Technology and Sustainability
The microcontroller unit at the heart of the whatt.io incendo is based on the renowned Arduino platform. Encased in a 3D-printed chassis manufactured by Lostboyslab, the device is a testament to sustainable production, utilizing 100% recycled plastic and EPDM rubber. The incorporated NFC 532 unit, complete with a specialized antenna, ensures precise reading and writing capabilities.
Open Source Collaboration and Community Engagement
In an unprecedented move, whatt.io INC will open-source the entire project, sharing code, schematics, instructions, and 3D models. This initiative invites vendors, makers, and manufacturers to build upon and customize their versions of this innovative device. Access to the platform's API and service license will be necessary for operational functionality.
Looking Forward to 2024: Partnerships and Community Access
whatt.io INC plans to release the project's resources on GitHub and other platforms in 2024, fostering collaboration and innovation within the community. This approach not only underlines whatt.io's commitment to open-source development, but also strengthens its position as a leader in Digital Product Passport solutions.
A Tailored Solution for Modern Manufacturing
The incendo device is engineered to seamlessly integrate into large-scale production lines, requiring minimal manual intervention. Its integration with the whatt.io back office allows for precise control and tracking of each unit's production. Additionally, its capability to function in a read mode presents vast possibilities for quality control and supply chain management.
Pricing and Availability
While the pricing of whatt.io incendo is yet to be finalized, the goal is to offer it at a cost comparable to a standard smartphone, providing an affordable, industrial-grade solution to manufacturers. The device will be available in multiple versions, each tailored to meet different manufacturing requirements.
