enhanced functionality to drive market
full article
As the Winter Olympics unfold, athletes have elevated their performances to new levels, nearly re-defining their sport in the process. Lindsey Vonn turned to men’s skis to win the women’s downhill. Shaun White re-invented snowboarding with his Double McTwist 1260 en route to winning gold.
Impinj hopes to similarly raise the bar in the RFID sector with today’s introduction of the Monza 4 line of premium tag chips. The Monza 4 family is expected to speed RFID adoption by delivering a faster return on investment and operational improvements. Impinj vice president of marketing Kerry Krause says the Monza 4 line should account for 10-20 percent of sales by the end of the year. The popular Monza 3 tag, targeted at cost-sensitive applications that require only basic UHF Gen 2 functionality, will remain a major force in the Impinj portfolio.
"We will be building and selling Monza 3 for several years to come," says Krause. "These new tag chips are premium products that represent incremental business for us and we believe they will also enable new applications."
