Technology Description

This technology is an integrated imaging solution using hardware and software to count and confirm the contents of a package along its logistical supply chain.

• This technology uses existing technologies, but applies them in a new manner.
  
• It uses software and hardware to monitor the contents of a package, similar to RFID methods, but is inherently different in that it was designed for tampering uses.
  
• The system is designed with existing technologies originally used for imaging uses, but is now being applied to improve logistics.
  
• Its development was not to simply track contents from one location to another, but to monitor contents with a technology that acquires its credentials automatically.
  
• Its uniqueness is that if any tampering takes place the tag will auto-acquire a new credential that can then be determined by external monitoring.
  
• Tags used provide non-hardware, non-software usable per item solution.
  
• This technology was developed for companies in the logistics industry that ship many high value consignment items.
  
• The process can be adopted by any logistic company with minimal training and change to established procedures.
