It provides full-stack technology development, adding the capability for laptops, smartphones, and other devices to automatically locate, identify, and connect with one another through a simple tap.
This functionality allows Elliptic Labs’ OEM partners to create innovative user experiences based on seamless device interoperability, making technology interactions more efficient, intuitive, and secure. As a result, OEMs can enhance customer loyalty, strengthen brand value, improve ecosystem integration, and foster innovation.
