Ultra-thin, flexible, and disposable tracking tag designed for high-volume asset management inside industrial environments.
The Quuppa Disposable Label is an active Bluetooth® tracking tag housed in a flexible paper form factor. Powered by an eco-friendly paper battery, it provides continuous sub-meter location data for transient inventory, packaging, and high-volume materials natively within the Quuppa Intelligent Locating System infrastructure.
The Quuppa Disposable Label is intended for tracking applications where low profile, low weight, and disposable deployment are essential. It adheres directly to flat or curved packaging surfaces, allowing facilities to track high-volume items.
Typical Use Cases
Key features
Disposable Label Tags use Quuppa’s Angle-of-Arrival technology to provide sub-meter positioning accuracy when used with Quuppa infrastructure.
The tag is activated by simply peeling it off the backing paper. Once removed, it automatically begins transmitting at the factory-set rate and continues to operate until the battery runs out.
The Disposable Label Tag uses an environmentally friendly zinc-based paper battery and the ultra-low-power InPlay IN100 NanoBeacon™ SoC. Depending on the use case and configuration, battery life can range from weeks for real-time tracking of moving objects to several months for slower-moving or stationary items.
