RE-294 NFC

2.9 inch ESL Rechargeable NFC + LED

Description

What diversifies the RE-294 from our traditional ESL solution, is that it contains a rechargeable battery. This enables you to use the ESL stand alone without having to worry about its lifetime. The battery lasts for 24 hours by normal use and is recharged in less than an hour.

On top of that the added value of active NFC, LED indicators, and sound feedback enables you to use customer loyalty cards, payment, and even pick-to-display solutions. The LED can be used as an indicator for a certain action, to attract attention or to find a product in a store/warehouse. When you develop a custom-made application, you can add even more functionalities to the Opticon RE-range that gives your customer control of their shopping experience, or you can use the application for your own purposes such as updating content on the e-paper.

The Opticon RE-range has a slim fit to make the shelf and store look neat and making an impact on the consumer. The dedicated power rail recharges the ESL within an hour, which makes the RE-range a carefree solution by not having to swap batteries in due time and having full freedom in its position in your store/warehouse. The RE-range creates the ‘wow-experience’ we are all looking for.

Another added value is the easy installment. Within a day, depending on the store size, you are set to go. To provide more insight into the installment and all accessories, we refer you to the brochure on PE-range Accessories which work on the same rail system as for the RE-range.

Unmanned store

An animation of our seamless shopping solution with active NFC in our Electronic Shelf Labels enables a new way of shopping for the customer.

 

Our Active NFC in our powered e-paper labels enables the customer to shop with customer cards, debit & credit cards, and mobile phones (Android & Apple). After the customer chooses their preferred payment method, a virtual shopping basket is created. The customer gathers his/her groceries by tapping the label and grabbing the products. When the customer is done shopping, he/she can check the contents in the accompanying store app and proceed to the check-out. To complete the purchase, the customer just has to tap the NFC card and confirm the transaction.
