- FIG 14 is a perspective view of an example tag attached to an item of apparel and communicating with a mobile device.
- Figure 1 shows a first example of a beacon module 2.
- the beacon module 2 comprises a chipset 4 formed on a printed circuit board (PCB) 6 (or other substrate).
- the PCB 6 may be rigid or flexible.
- the chipset 4 is connected to a meandering trace antenna 8.
- the chipset 4 is also connected to a power source 10 in the form of a battery, such as a coin cell.
- the power source 10 is disposed on the opposite side of the PCB 6 to the chipset 4. The power source 10 is therefore able to overlap with the chipset 4.
- the beacon module 2 is a Bluetooth low energy (BLE - or Bluetooth Smart) device.
- the chipset 4 is thus configured to broadcast a unique identifier via the antenna 8 which can be received by nearby smart devices, such as smartphones or smartwatches.
- FIG. 2 shows a second example of a beacon module 102.
- the beacon module 102 comprises a chipset 104 formed on a PCB 106.
- the chipset 104 is again connected to a meandering trace antenna 108 and a power source 1 10 in the form of a battery, such as a coin cell.
- the power source 110 is provided on the same side of the PCB 106.
- the power source 110 and the chipset 104 are therefore arranged side by side. Consequently, while the beacon module 2 is narrower than the beacon module 102, it is thicker (having a final thickness of 6mm versus 5mm).
- FIG. 3 shows a tag 12 comprising the beacon module 2 described previously.
- the beacon module 2 is encapsulated in a protective case 14 formed by an upper half 14a and a lower half 14b (although they need not be identical halves and can instead form different portions).
- the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b are contoured so that they contact one another only along a peripheral edge with the remainder of the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b being spaced from one another to form a cavity 16 which receives the beacon module 2.
- the case 14 therefore has an upper surface, a lower surface and a convex side surface (having a semi-circular cross-section) joining the upper and lower surfaces.
- the beacon module 2 is arranged such that the chipset 4 sits in the upper half 14a and the power source 10 sits in the lower half 14b.
- the peripheral edges of the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b comprise complementary abutting surfaces which form a half lap joint.
- the upper half 14a comprises a perimeter groove formed in a radially outer portion of the peripheral edge and which thus defines a perimeter shoulder formed in a radially inner portion of the peripheral edge.
- the lower half comprises a perimeter groove formed in a radially inner portion of the peripheral edge and which thus defines a perimeter shoulder formed in a radially outer portion of the peripheral edge.
- the shoulder of one half 14a, 14b is received by the complementary groove of the other half 14a, 14b to form the half lap joint.
- other arrangements may be used to join the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b.
- the beacon module 2 is supported within the case 14 by a plurality of (in this instance, four) shoulders 18 which project inwards into the cavity 16 from the upper half 14a.
- the shoulders 18 support the beacon module 2 in the cavity 16 such that it does not contact the remainder of the case 14.
- the beacon module 2 is therefore partially isolated from the case 14 in order to provide the beacon module 2 with insulation from shocks and high temperatures.
- the shoulders 18 occupy only a small proportion of the perimeter of the case 14 which may be less than 5% or less than 1 %.
- the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b are connected to one another to seal the module 2 within the case 14 by applying an adhesive to the peripheral edge of the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b.
- the adhesive may, for example, be a thermoset plastic (resin) or an elastomer.
- the sealing of the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b is sufficient to prevent water and dust ingress.
- the upper and lower halves 14a, 14b can be separated in order to provide access to the power source 10 such that it can be replaced.
- the beacon module 2 is held in the upper half 14a of the case 14 with the power source 10 below the PCB 6 such that removal of the lower half 14b provides access to the power source 10.
- the chipset 4 is not, however, exposed when the lower half 14b is removed.
- the case 14 is formed from a material comprising an engineering or high-performance polymer (also referred to as a high temperature plastics polymer— including also ultra or extreme temperature polymers).
- an engineering or high-performance polymer also referred to as a high temperature plastics polymer— including also ultra or extreme temperature polymers.
- Such polymers include thermoset plastics, thermoplastics (amorphous polymers and semi-crystalline polymers) , elastomers and composites. They are categorized by various characteristics, but importantly are able to withstand high operating temperatures.
- engineering polymers are capable of withstanding operating temperatures of 100°C to 150°C and high- performance polymers are capable of withstanding operating temperatures of more than 150°C.
- the case 14 may be formed from an elastomer, such as a natural or synthetic rubber or a composite such as thermoplastic elastomers (TPE).
- TPE thermoplastic elastomers
- the case 14 may be particularly formed from silicone rubber. Silicone rubber is soft to touch and non-allergenic and so can
- FIG 4 shows a tag 1 12 comprising the beacon module 102 described previously.
- the tag 112 is very similar to the tag 12 in that the beacon module 102 is encapsulated in a protective case 114 formed by an upper half 114a and a lower half 1 14b.
- the power source 110 and chipset 104 are arranged side by side.
- the beacon module 102 is arranged such that the chipset 104 and the power source 1 10 sit in the upper half 1 14a.
- removal of the upper half 114a provides access to both the chipset 104 and power source 110.
- FIGS 5 and 6 show tags 212, 312 comprising the beacon modules 2 and 102 respectively.
- the tags 212, 312 are similar to the tags 12, 112 described previously.
- the case 214, 314 of each tag 212, 312 is a sealed one-piece arrangement which does not permit access to the power source 10, 110 therewithin. Consequently, the power source 10, 110 cannot be replaced and the tag 212, 312 is disposed of when the power source 10, 110 has been expended.
- Figures 7 shows a tag 412 comprising the beacon module 2 described previously.
- the tags 412 is similar to the tag 12 described previously and has a two-part case 414 formed of upper and lower halves 414a, 414b.
- the tag 412 differs from the tag 12 in that a sealing material 420 is adhered to the perimeter of the PCB 6.
- the sealing material 420 seals the printed circuit board against the upper half 414a of the case 414 around its entire perimeter. Therefore, the sealing material 420 prevents water and dust from entering the upper half 414a, particularly when the lower half 414b is removed to replace the power source 10, and thus protects the chipset 4.
- the sealing material 420 may also provide insulation from the case 414 to isolate the beacon module 2 from impacts and high temperatures.
- the sealing material 420 may be an adhesive such as a thermoset plastic (resin, such as epoxy resin) or an elastomer.
- Figure 8 shows a tag 512 comprising the beacon module 2 described previously.
- the tag is similar to the tag 412 described previously and utilises a sealing material 520 to protect the upper side of the beacon module 2.
- the sealing material 520 not only extends around the perimeter of the PCB 6, but also over the upper surface of the beacon module 2 covering the chipset 4 and other elements.
- the sealing material 520 therefore provides further protection to the beacon module 2.
- the sealing material 520 may cover the entire upper surface of the beacon module 2 or only part of the surface.
- the sealing material 520 provides an additional layer of material between the beacon module 2 and the upper half 514a of the case 514.
- the sealing material 520 may contact the upper surface or may be spaced therefrom.
- Figure 9 shows a tag 612 comprising the beacon module 2 described previously.
- the tag is similar to the tag 512 described previously and utilises a sealing material 620 which covers the upper surface of the beacon module 2.
- the sealing material is also provided in the lower half 614b of the case 614.
- the sealing material 620 therefore provides an internal layer which entirely surrounds the beacon module 2 within the external layer formed by the case 14.
- Figure 10 shows a tag 712 comprising the beacon module 2 described previously.
- the tag 712 is similar to the tag 612 described previously and has an internal layer which entirely surrounds the beacon module 2 within the case 714.
- the case 714 is a sealed one-piece arrangement which does not permit access to the power source 10 therewithin. Consequently, the power source 10 cannot be replaced and the tag 712 is disposed of when the power source 10 has been expended.
- Figure 11 shows a tag 812 which corresponds to the tag 712 described previously, but utilising the beacon module 102 rather than the beacon module 2.
- the tag ( Figure 12 shows the tag 212 and Figure 13 shows the tag 312, but any of the tags described previously may be used) may be located in a fabric pouch or pocket 22 which is soft to touch.
- the fabric pouch 22 may be sealed (for example, the tag may be sewn into the pouch 22) or may provide access to the tag to allow it to be removed (e.g. to replace the power source, where possible).
- the fabric pouch 22 may be sewn into or otherwise attached to an item of apparel.
- the fabric pouch 22 containing the tag therefore resembles a conventional care label provided in items of apparel.
- the term "apparel" encompasses at least clothing, accessories and footwear.
- the fabric pouch 22 containing the tag may be attached to a t-shirt or other item of clothing, such as a pair of trousers or accessories, such as bags, or footwear.
- the tag may be connected directly to the item of apparel without the use of a fabric pouch.
- the beacon module is encapsulated within a case formed from an engineering polymer or a high-performance polymer which are able to withstand temperatures of over 100°C or 150°C.
- the case also prevents water and dust ingress and protects the beacon module from thermal and mechanical shock, as well as being resistant to chemicals.
- the tag can be laundered (including washing, drying and other laundry processes) and ironed without damaging the beacon module.
- the beacon module of the tag is a Bluetooth low energy device which is configured to broadcast an identifier which can be received by nearby smart devices, such as smartphone 24 shown in Figure 14.
- the smartphone 24 may be directed to information concerning the item of apparel through an app, website or computer database.
- the tag may transmit information comprising a redirection identifier embodying an identifier of the item of apparel and an HTTP address of a server to redirect or provide access to the user to a specific computer application about the item of apparel.
- the tags may be permanently attached to the item of apparel and not removed at the point of sale. This information therefore can be accessed both within a store and also after the item has been sold.
- the user may be provided with information such as the brand, size, price etc.
- the user may be able to sort and filter items within their vicinity by price, brand, colour, etc. and can check the availability of items in their size.
- the app may also display images showing outfits containing the item. These outfits can be determined based on the combinations of items worn by others which can be sensed automatically using the tags of the items (i.e. those closest to their own smart device, such as a smartphone).
- the app may provide an opportunity for the user to purchase the item . This can be done when a user is in store browsing through items or when the user sees another person wearing an item of apparel which they like.
- the item When browsing in store, the item may be purchased directly from the store or subsequently delivered to the user. Where the item is purchased directly from the store, payment can be made through the app and the ownership status of the item is updated so that ownership changes from the store to the user. As a result, the store's security systems are not triggered by the user leaving the store with the item. Purchases can therefore be made from the store without any input from an employee of the store.
- the tags may also be used to provide live inventory information to the store. In particular, the tags may communicate with one another and the app to provide this information. By allowing a user to try an item in store and then delivering it to them at a later date, the store is able to significantly reduce its inventory. In particular, the store may only need to stock one or two items in each available size such that they can be tried on.
- the tag may also be used to provide instore security.
- the tag may communicate with a beacon in the store and when a user leaves without paying for an item, the store is alerted to this.
- the tag may provide information to the store which allows the item to be located.
- a security camera system may use this information to obtain an image of the thief which can be automatically provided to security personnel.
- the tag may also be used to identify whether a product is genuine or counterfeit by scanning the item of apparel using the app. In particular, the tag may be scanned from distances of over 3 metres to allow the counterfeit item to be identified from distance.
- the tags described previously have been described as having a particular form, it will be appreciated that other shapes of tag may be used.
- the tag may be provided in different colours and may have text or images printed on its surface.
- the tag may include a brand logo or the like.
- certain features are described in relation to only one or several aspects or embodiments of the invention. However, it is to be understood that, where it is technically possible, features described in relation to any aspect or embodiment of the invention may also be used with any other aspect or embodiment of the invention.
