With the release of "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" on December 20, you will surely see many products related to the upcoming movie, but few are as unique as these Coca-Cola bottles. They feature protagonists Rey and Kylo Ren, and come with lightsabers that will light up as soon as you touch the label.
If you want to know what kind of space magic can make bottles emit light, the answer is organic light-emitting diodes (OLED). Yes, the same technology may also power the display of your mobile phone or high-end TV, which also brings the lightsaber of Rey and Kylo Ren to life.
This technology was invented by a Berlin startup company called Inuru. Each bottle has the company's smart label. There is a built-in printing battery and light-emitting diode on the label. By touching the label, you complete a circuit, and the circuit sends current to the diode. According to Inuru, this printed battery can sustain at least 500 activations.
The company claims that such diodes are "environmentally friendly" because they are manufactured without the use of rare earth metals. Obviously, products related to "Star Wars" are one of the smarter applications of smart labels, but the company believes that this technology will enter the fields of packaging, advertising, and household appliances in the future.
However, if you want to buy these limited edition Coca-Cola, you need to go to Singapore. Currently, Coca-Cola plans to launch 8,000 bottles in Singapore from December 6 to 22 as part of the "Galaxy Hunt" promotion. As with most technologies, as technology becomes cheaper, we are likely to see these types of tags grow.
