Enable IPC Corporation (PINKSHEETS: EIPC) today issued an update to
shareholders and interested parties regarding new products expected
to be released within the coming weeks. These new products include
an on-metal version of the Company's S/Cap RFID Tag® and a variety
of RFID tags of different characteristics to broaden the Company's
RFID product line.
Additional product announcements include anodized aluminum oxide
(AAO) nanopore templates and ultracapacitors.
The Company also announced initial sample sales of its S/Cap
RFID Tags®.
New RFID Tags Available Soon S/Cap RFID
Tags® contain a number of improvements on other competing designs,
including:
- Ruggedized case
- Waterproof
- Wide operational range temperature and humidity ranges
- Multiple mounting options
- Longer read range
- Ability to be read across multiple frequency bands (860 to 960
MHz)
- Attractive warranty and
- Competitive pricing
Enable has had success selling initial samples of the S/Cap RFID
Tags® to interested companies in North America, South America and
Asia. The Company expects these initial sales to turn into larger
transactions in the near future.
In order to further broaden its approach to an RFID tag market
forecasted by one third party researcher to reach a total market
value of $8 billion by 2014, Enable has announced the upcoming
offering of an on-metal version of its already launched S/Cap RFID
Tag®. The on-metal version has been successfully prototyped and
tested; production is expected to begin in the coming weeks. The
on-metal tag will combine the rugged, long life, long read range
and competitive pricing of the original S/Cap RFID Tag® while
allowing on-metal mounting for uninhibited tracking of fork-lifts,
automobiles, cargo containers and other metal assets.
In addition to both its standard and on-metal versions of the
S/Cap RFID Tag®, the Company plans to soon begin offering
additional RFID tags of varying dimensions, performance
characteristics and price points in order to form a complete RFID
asset tag product line to allow wider access to the market.
S/Cap RFID Tag® Now a Registered Trademark
Enable was granted a trademark on the S/Cap RFID Tag® phrase by the
US Patent and Trademark Office. Trademarks identify and distinguish
the source of the goods of one party from another. For example, a
trademark prevents Pepsi from naming its product "Coke" (and vice
versa), keeps Burger King from naming its hamburger the "Big Mac,"
and they prohibit someone who builds custom cars in his garage from
naming his enterprise "Ford Motor Company."
The Company's trademark prevents others from using the same
product name on a different RFID tag.
Nanopore Template and Ultracapacitor Products
on the Way In addition to the expansion of its RFID tag
product line, Enable IPC has announced the upcoming production for
sale of both anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) nanopore templates and
ultracapacitors.
Enable IPC has a patent pending on a new technology that
economically allows the creation of alumina discs with precisely
ordered tiny holes (called nanopores) 1/1000th the diameter of a
human hair. The Company stated that production for sale of these
AAO nanopore templates is expected to begin soon. These templates
can be used to create nanotubes and nanowires, and they can also be
used as filters.
Nanotubes and nanowires are used in many applications primarily
to strengthen and increase resistance of materials. Examples
include automobile bumpers, tennis rackets and perfume containers.
Used as filters, the AAO nanopore templates have a wide variety of
applications -- especially in medical or environmental areas where
the ability to precisely filter toxins, viruses or other particles
from air, water, liquids or other material is highly valued.
Ultracapacitors are used in many items, particularly for backup
or clock memory in electronic devices (TVs, DVD players, mobile
phones, etc.) but also in many applications where sudden bursts of
energy are necessary, such as a camera flash or a device power up.
Enable plans to soon begin offering a variety of ultracapacitors of
various sizes and performance characteristics for purchase at the
Company's online store.
National Science Foundation Project Having
completed the $150,000 Phase I STTR project for the National
Science Foundation, SolRayo, Inc., a subsidiary of Enable IPC
Corporation, has submitted its proposal for Phase II funding which,
if approved, will provide an additional $500,000 of funding for two
years beginning in 2012.
Under the Phase I grant, Solrayo developed a new nanoparticulate
based technology to address an issue concerning the degradation of
performance of certain lithium-ion ("Li-ion") batteries,
particularly in high temperature applications. The Phase II funding
will be aimed at commercializing the technology. The Company
expects to hear the results of its application by the end of this
year.
One reason for the rapid growth in portable electronics over the
past few decades has been the availability of rechargeable Li-ion
batteries that provide the required high gravimetric and volumetric
energy densities. One of the problems with this technology,
however, is the relatively high expense of cathode materials
compared to other types of rechargeable batteries (like nickel
cadmium and nickel metal hydride). While the Li-ion industry has
grown exponentially over the past 20 years to be valued by Frost
& Sullivan at approximately $8.4 billion in 2010, its growth
has been mitigated by its relatively high expense. It is
anticipated that this technology could allow for lower cost cathode
materials for Li-ion batteries, making Li-ion price-competitive
with other battery technologies and leading to further exponential
growth for the industry.
Blog on Intellectual Property (IP) At
Enable IPC Corporation, the goal is to turn technologies into
products (the IPC in the Company name stands for Intellectual
Property Commercialization). As Enable begins expanding its product
offerings, it is worth noting that these products are being
manufactured elsewhere for Enable IPC. Enable holds the sales or
technological rights to patented or patent pending technologies and
the Company seeks to market and commercialize these technologies
rather than manufacture the products outright. The Company believes
this strategy has the potential to more quickly build ROI with less
financial risk.
On the Enable IPC blog, at http://blog.enableipc.com, readers
will find a multi-part series explaining and discussing many
aspects of intellectual property. To date, the blog has addressed
the process of filing for patents and other available protections.
Future installments of this series are scheduled to include
discussions on technology licensing and commercialization.
About Enable IPC Corp. (Intellectual Property
Commercialization) Enable IPC (http://www.enableipc.com)
provides efficient, streamlined strategies for turning technologies
into products and bringing them to market. The Company seeks to
turn technologies into products and is a transparent, fair turnkey
partner for sub-licensing and joint development with other
companies.
