Project Overview

Organisation
Project Brief
The RIMOWA Electronic Tag is the first digital, fully integrated check-in solution. Based on digital technology that is incorporated directly into select cases, the RIMOWA Electronic Tag replaces the usual paper checked bag label with a digital data module that improves accuracy and decreases stress.
Project Innovation/Need
The faceplate of theE Ink Mobius® display is made of tried-and-tested Gorilla® Glass which is 4 times thicker and 10 times stronger than your average iPhone screen.
The strength of the frame is not compromised by the insertion of the module, which is made of polycarbonate.
Travel information is protected from the elements and secure from rips, smudges, detachment and tears.
The only time that the power is used is while transmitting data. The data will be permanently displayed until the module is reset, even without an energy supply.
Two AAA alkaline batteries are required for use, conveniently accessible anywhere in the world.
Simplicity and Accuracy - Just like a smartphone, this is a smartbag, simple use without the worry and stress. No wait time when checking in at the airport.
Accurate data matches the traditional paper tag exactly.
