Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021129933A1] An electronic shelf labelling system (1), wherein the system has, on a shelf edge strip (3) of a shelf, a near-field communication (NFC) sub-system which is characterised in that the shelf edge strip has a shelf edge strip controller (4A-4C), the shelf edge strip controller having a first wireless communication module which is designed to wirelessly communicate as per a first communication method with an access point (6) for the purpose of transferring data with a server (5) of the shelf labelling system, and the shelf edge strip controller having an NFC-capable second wireless communication module for NFC-based power supply and communication with at least one NFC-capable shelf label (2A-2K) that can be secured on the shelf edge strip, and the shelf edge strip has at least one conductor loop (L) formed thereon and connected to the second NFC-capable communication module, the conductor loop being used for NFC communication with the NFC-capable shelf label, and the shelf edge strip has a light emitting unit (100) and the shelf edge strip controller is designed to control the light emitting unit as a result of the data transfer.
