MAY 20216 MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY INSIGHTSImagine a shipment of high-end home appliances leaves its offshore production facility and an embedded multifunction sensor in the pallet tracks the location of the product. As it moves through multiple transport modes, the sensors let the consumer packaged goods company alert retail partners to the expected time of arrival. Meanwhile, at the domestic warehouse, the pallet unfortunately slips off and gets partly damaged. This event is recorded by the sensor for the improvement of handling processes in the future. When the products finally reach the retail store, scanners read anti-tamper intelligent labels on each package to confirm that they are non-pirated. In the end, at the customer's home, a sensor embedded in the appliance monitors the usage and uploads the data to a smart home hub, which lets the owner know about malfunctions and required maintenance.This short snippet--although not a real-world example--is a compilation of individual smart packaging functionalities already present in the market or is in the last phases of development.
