Project Details

Description

The Smart Tags communication project is set to increase consumer trust towards food products by sharing information about the food product value chain during the whole life-cycle of the product, enabling novel service concepts and interactivity between consumers and the food industry. It screens and evaluates the suitability of different technologies available in the market and aims to understand the needs and expectations of consumers towards how and where interactivity is valued. Our outcome will increase the trust and knowledge of the food value chain for consumers and provides new experiences of interactivity with the food industry.
