The primary product is a patented equine iris scanner. It scans and encodes--painlessly and non-invasively--the unique patterns in the colored portion of the eye (the iris), and uses these patterns to identify the animal. For more than two years, the scanners have been used successfully in the field and at show events by several organizations. The company is developing a new web platform to connect and improve the operation of the scanners and database. It should be available for testing and demos in 2025.
