A packaged product comprising a physical product, an inductively powered transponder device having a memory containing digital content, and a packaging, the packaging being adapted to prevent sufficient signal from reaching an antenna of the inductively powered transponder device to enable the digital content to be read from the memory.
A packaged product comprising an inductively powered transponder device having a memory containing digital content, the package comprising a conductive removable layer preventing power from reaching an antenna of the inductively powered transponder device.
A method of packaging a product comprising an inductively powered transponder device having a memory containing digital content, comprising:
- physically associating the inductively powered transponder device with the product;
- writing digital content into the memory of the inductively powered transponder device;
- packaging the product and physically associated inductively powered transponder device so as to prevent sufficient power from reaching an antenna of the inductively powered transponder device to enable the digital content to be read from the memory.
