The PaperDNA M2 reader is an authentication solution to prevent counterfeit in pharmaceutical products, which is an increasing problem. The device analyzes the inherent micro topography of paper fiber pulp on a printed label to verify the products. The purpose and aim is to give the consumer a tool to assure the authenticity of the medicine intended for purchase. On a touch screen more information can be seen about the verification and the medicine. The product was developed and designed as a result of field studies in pharmacies internationally, as well as user studies and interviews.
