Impinj has launched its Physical Intelligence platform designed to connect physical item data with enterprise AI systems. The platform aims to provide businesses with verified information by automating the identification and tracking of products.
Why it matters
Enterprise AI systems require accurate, real-world data to function effectively. By providing trusted, item-level information, the platform helps companies avoid the risks associated with incomplete or synthetic datasets.
The platform utilizes RFID-encoded labels and inlays to feed data into a system that handles four core functions: Identify, Track, Analyze, and Automate. It includes the Gen2X technology to maintain item visibility and data protection across enterprise networks.
