Eagle Creek’s WaveOn Enabled Caldera Carry-On Grabs Gear of the Year Award
High-end travel bag manufacturer, Eagle Creek, has just announced its Caldera Carry-On with integrated WaveOn technology has been honored with a Gear of the Year Award from Outside Magazine.
Judges noted that:
The included NFC technology, which enables lost and found capabilities via a smartphone tracking app, gave me peace of mind in the event that my bag was misplaced during my travels.
Further features mean that travelers can access detailed product information and videos, warranty registration features, and sharable travel logging technology. Travelers can tap their smartphone against the bag at any time to activate a personal dashboard showing them all the places they have traveled and a ranking in a ‘miles traveled’ leaderboard system against other Caldera bag owners.
The feature also has a social sharing component where owners can share their travel milestones with their friends, family, and followers on all major social media platforms.
WaveOn CEO Jurgen Schmerler commented:
“Our partnership with Eagle Creek continues to break new ground in delivering innovative use cases for our platform. The Caldera travel line is a great example of how manufacturers can use WaveOn NFC to connect and engage with their customers after they have purchased their product.”
