We have been shortlisted as a finalist in the Retail Technology Innovation Awards at the Retail Technology Show 2026, with our latest innovation recognised as one of the top 10 retail technology breakthroughs featured at this year’s event.
The shortlist is selected by an independent panel of industry judges and highlights technologies that are helping retailers solve some of the sector’s most complex operational challenges.
For PervasID, the recognition centres on TrackMaster 3X, our next-generation passive RFID platform designed to deliver real-time, item-level visibility across the entirestore environment.
Solving retail’s visibility challenge
Retailers today operate in an environment where accuracy, speed and flexibility are critical. Omnichannel fulfilment, real-time stock availability and seamless customer experiences all depend on one fundamental capability: knowing exactly what inventory is available and where it is located.
TrackMaster3X was designed to address this challenge at scale.
The solution is a hands-free, always-on passive RFID system capable of delivering near-100% item accuracy and one-metre location precision across complex retail environments. Using PervasID’s patented distributed antenna technology, advanced signal processing and AI-driven analytics, TrackMaster 3X eliminates the traditional blind spots that have historically limited RFID deployments.
Instead of relying on manual handheld scans or dense networks of readers, a single overhead reader can cover up to 4,500 square feet, providing continuous, real-time visibility of inventory across both shop floor and stockroom.
Turning inventory data into retail intelligence
Beyond tracking items, TrackMaster 3X transforms raw RFID data into actionable insights for retail teams.
One example is ‘money mapping’, which allows retailers to analyse how merchandise performs across different store locations and layouts. This enables smarter merchandising decisions, helping retailers maximise sales productivity across every square foot of retail space.
Atthe same time, real-time visibility supports several operational improvementsthat retailers are actively prioritising:
- Higher stock accuracy and product availability
- Reduced shrink and inventory distortion
- Faster and more reliable omnichannel fulfilment
- Improved labour productivity in-store
Together, these capabilities allow retailers to unlock measurable operational and financial impact, often delivering return on investment within months.
