As part of our quest to provide technology independent proximity reader/writer devices we will release our latest product, the TWN4 MultiTech 2 BLE, before the end of 2016. Beside NFC and all current HF and LF RFID technologies, it will also support authentication through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The advantage of using BLE is that it is crossplatform compatible (e.g. Android <–> iOS) thus allowing the usage of the reader with every BLE enabled device no matter which vendor it was issued by. The dimensions of the OEM PCB version will be smaller than the dimensions of the standard TWN4 MultiTech, whereas the desktop version will remain the the same.
