CalAmp: iOn Tag smart sensors

CalAmp now offers iOn Tag™ smart sensors, which are designed to deliver granular-level visibility throughout the supply chain.
 
With iOn Tags and iOn Trak™ devices, customers can "gain detailed insights" into the conditions that can affect product quality, including total elapsed transit time and other environmental variables, the company says. With on-demand and custom alerts, shipments can be tracked and monitored as they move through the supply chain.
 
The tags provide product verification through the CalAmp Supply Chain Integrity (SCI) system, a product visibility solution. With CalAmp iOn Tags and iOn Trak devices directly linked to CalAmp’s SCiOn™Command Portal, customers can follow products to the end destination and assess whether potential risk situations have occurred or should be investigated.

“We’re leveraging IoT technology to help improve overall supply chain integrity by keeping all shipments on track and cold chain products fresh, compliant and within regulatory standards,” said Paul Washicko, vice president and general manager of CalAmp’s SaaS business.
