New condition monitoring IoT solution enhances supply chain visibility for pharmaceutical companies

SANTA ANA, Calif., April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global leader in RFID- and BLE-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, today announced a strategic business development and marketing partnership with Tag-N-Trac, a full stack IoT platform provider for real-time supply chain visibility and traceability. This new partnership will initially focus on developing and commercializing specialized IoT solutions for cold chain tracking within the pharmaceutical industry supply chain.

The partnership combines Identiv’s advanced BLE smart labels with Tag-N-Trac’s RELATIVITY™ SaaS platform, an integrated IoT solution that delivers item-level visibility and actionable insights from origin to delivery. The RELATIVITY IoT platform brings together connectivity and data collection to deliver real-time visibility and traceability along with monitoring of ambient conditions such as item temperature and humidity, ensuring integrity and compliance for temperature sensitive products across the cold chain. The RELATIVITY platform is an industry-first single platform for “In warehouse” and “In transit” across globe visibility and traceability using purpose built smart labels and tags.

“As regulatory requirements and patient safety concerns grow, real-time data and visibility into the pharmaceutical cold chain have become critical,” said Kirsten Newquist, CEO at Identiv. “Our strategic partnership with Tag-N-Trac supports pharmaceutical customers with smart, scalable IoT solutions that meet rigorous regulatory standards while optimizing operational efficiency.”

Identiv’s smart labels continuously capture raw environmental data throughout a product’s journey to delivery. Tag-N-Trac’s platform transforms this data into real-time analytics for monitoring location, condition, and chain-of-custody status, making the technology platform well suited for high-value products such as vaccines, biologics, and other temperature-sensitive medications.

“Cold chain visibility is one of the most complex and vital challenges in pharmaceutical distribution and logistics,” said Venu Gutlapalli, CEO of Tag-N-Trac. “Together with Identiv, we’re delivering a comprehensive digital solution that gives pharmaceutical companies the confidence and data intelligence to manage temperature-sensitive products safely, efficiently, and in full compliance.”

This strategic partnership reaffirms both companies’ commitment to building a smarter, more connected pharmaceutical supply chain through specialized IoT solutions.

Push the limits with two sizes, a rucking activity, AMOLED display, metal-reinforced bezel and built-in LED flashlights on all models

OLATHE, Kan., April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Garmin (NYSE: GRMN) today announced the Instinct® 3 – Tactical Edition, its newest lineup of tactical smartwatches, now offered with a crisp AMOLED display or solar-powered display for maximum battery life. Designed for any mission, Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition adds a metal-reinforced bezel for extreme durability, rucking activity for training, and built-in LED flashlight on both 45mm and 50mm units for low-light conditions. And with incredible battery life, it’s easy to stay prepared longer; the AMOLED model gets up to 24 days on a single charge in smartwatch mode, while the solar charging models can get unlimited battery life1.

“The Instinct series has proven itself time and again as the ultimate choice for individuals who need an advanced smartwatch they can depend on in any situation. With incredible battery life, an innovative rugged design and dedicated features for your tactical lifestyle, the Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition answers the call and dares to be more.”
 –Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing

Rugged yet bold

Featuring bolted construction with a metal-reinforced bezel, fiber-reinforced polymer case and scratch-resistant display, Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition sets a new standard for durability. The lineup is also built to MIL-STD 810 for thermal and shock resistance and is water-rated up to 100 meters. Plus, the built-in flashlight provides variable intensities, a green light to help protect natural night vision, and strobe mode to assist with location signaling in difficult terrain. For night operations, Night Vision Goggle (NVG) mode dims the display to levels functional to the primary user (including those wearing night optic devices) but nearly invisible to anyone else.

Dare for more with these Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition features

Rucking activity: The dedicated activity profile allows users to input pack weight to better understand the physical exertion associated with rucking. During various activities like trail running, hiking and walking, users can also add their pack weight.Ballistic solutions: All Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition units come with Applied Ballistics® solver (unlock fee required) and are compatible with the Applied Ballistics Quantum app. Dedicated tactical features: Purpose-built with dedicated features like Stealth Mode, Kill Switch, and Jumpmaster, Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition provides the tools for any mission.Two sizes: Available in a 45mm or 50mm solar-powered display and a 50mm AMOLED display.Increased solar efficiency: A larger, more efficient solar lens harnesses the power of the sun even better. Compared to Instinct 2 Solar, the new 50mm Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition solar model gets more than five times the battery life in GPS mode when solar charging.Multi-band GPS with SatIQ™ technology: Experience superior positioning accuracy while optimizing battery life.24/7 health and wellness monitoring: Track steps, heart rate, advanced sleep monitoring, wrist-based Pulse Ox2, heart rate variability (HRV) status and more3.Smart notifications: Receive emails, texts and alerts right on the watch when paired with a compatible Apple® or Android™ smartphone.

Lead the charge

Users can navigate confidently with a 3-axis compass, barometric altimeter and multi-band GPS with SatIQ™ technology, delivering superior positioning while optimizing battery life. Users can also pair their Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition with the Garmin Explore™ App to review more detailed maps, create waypoints and courses and more to stay on course.

In sensitive locations, users can utilize Stealth Mode, which turns off wireless communications but still collects distances traveled and biometric data without recording location data. Leveraging this feature allows the watch to be used – and even upload logged data – while concealing its location, which is typically visible through popular mobile training apps. If security becomes an issue, the watch’s Kill Switch wipes the device of all user memory. Other mission-focused features include a dual-position format, which simultaneously displays two sets of coordinates on a single screen, Jumpmaster, a preloaded tactical activity, and projected waypoints. 

Train for the mission

With sports apps like rucking, hiking, running, climbing, hunting, skiing and more, Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition is the ultimate wingman for any training experience. While in-field, TracBack® routing helps provide a route back to the starting point as well as reference points of known spots relative to that location. In addition to built-in sports apps for outdoor adventures, Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition is loaded with apps for activities like HIIT, cardio, indoor and outdoor track running, basketball and more.

Users can prepare for the next race, train for a milestone, or strive to improve overall fitness with Garmin Coach adaptive and prebuilt training plans for running and cycling. View an entire week of daily suggested workouts that adapt after every run or ride or create step-by-step workouts from more than 1,600 exercises in the Garmin Connect™ app, then send them directly to the watch. And track intensity minutes, VO2 max and recovery time to receive guidance on recommended recovery times to reduce fatigue and burnout.

Safety and tracking features include incident detection (during select outdoor activities) and Assistance, which can send a message with the user’s GPS location (if available) to emergency contacts when paired with a smartphone4.

Available to order on Garmin.com on April 30, the Instinct 3 – Tactical Edition AMOLED model has a suggested retail price of $599.99 while the solar charging models start at $499.99.
