Product Spotlight Workfl ow Technology HP’s (Booth 1825) Link Technology provides a unique item identity service used to provide a connection between a print product and the Internet using unique codes and invisible watermarks. For those involved in supply chain logistics, Link Technology offers the ability to track at piece level, shipment level, and provide order reconciliation and shipping location giving customers in packaging, labels, and retail the transparency and confi dence of knowing where their products have arrived at their destination. In the retail environment Link Technology allows user-scanned interactions by embedding a code or invisible watermark encoded with additional information in labels, signage, or other physical materials to connect the physical world experience to the digital world. From a consumer perspective Link Technology allows for gamifi cation post retail. Link Technology links to installation instructions, support for any breaks or malfunctions, and at the end of the product life, how and where to recycle.
