interesting about tagnetics. what's the difference between these electronic shelf labels and others out there? for stores to get the value out of these little devices they need to buy into very pricey price optitmization software to the tune of millions.
Tagnetics' technology is different from other ESL systems out there because we do not power our tags with a battery. This allows the tag to have less components inside, be more powerful and more cost efficient. The tag is powered iductively from the rail that it snaps into. No metal connections to short out and the tag can handle substantial weather before incurring any kind of damage. Unfortunately other ESLs out there do not have this durability.
Current customers have determined that Tagnetics technology delivers a very compelling ROI. Because of this the busines is growing rapidly. If you would like to see one of these systems in the wild, head down to Austin, Houston, Dallas area. There is a chain sporting Tagnetics' goods down there.
interesting. i read recently where whole foods and HEB launched ELS technology in some of their TX stores. the reporter said it was tagnetics. these must be the stores you're referring to. i also read that W5 Networks launched their new ESL at Demo 06 in SF last fall, breaking the price barrier ($3.5 unit). you mentioned that without batteries in each unit, the costs are lower. do they compare to w5? i'll be interested to see how these changes in ESL technology change the retail space moving forward. from a sustainable standpoint, i'm all for it. what timeline do you see for full adoption of this technology? its been 15 years in the making already.
