IER has signed a licence deal to use Innovision Research and Technology's award winning Jewel chip.

IER, the leading designer and manufacturer of inlays (chip and antenna assemblies) for RFID labels has signed a licence deal to use Innovision Research and Technology's award winning Jewel chip The Jewel technology - widely regarded as the world's smallest and lowest cost contactless ticketing chip - will be integrated within IER's new generation of RFID labels aimed specifically at mass transit smart ticketing applications

IER, as a leading inlay manufacturer specialising in high volume HF and UHF smart labels, develops RFID solutions for logistic tracking applications (textiles, packaging, baggage), contactless ticketing, asset management, traceability of animals and secure document applications.

For public transportation applications, IER already offers a complete range of innovative solutions for selling, dispensing and reloading tickets and cards at desk counters as well as in self-service ticket vending machines for train, underground or tramway transport.

By integrating the Jewel chips in its inlays, IER intends to develop a new generation of RFID labels designed specifically for mass transit smart ticketing applications.

"With our advanced production lines and prototyping line, we manufacture a wide range of inlays in various materials and for made-to-measure antennas", says Eric Heurtier, IER's RFID Labels Sales Manager.

"The Jewel chips will allow us to target the mass transportation market with UHF inlays and labels including ISO14443A compatible chips at a very competitive price but without compromising on quality and reliability".
