Why I need it

Transparency, Traceability, and Trust are a basic customer expectation.

With one solution you can: Trace your products throughout the factory and supply chain; ensure your customers are not buying or returning fraudulent products; manage warranty and service claims; and ensure employees don’t use the wrong item for the job.

Irrefutably identify and trace each specific item you have or are delivering, with its full provenance and data.

Some industries have already regulated it. Others will.

Get ahead of it with a simple, irrefutable, machine-vision based technology that does not require you to touch, mark, or modify the item or its production.

How it works

Manufacturing tolerances mean that products have minute differences (similar to how each snowflake is unique). These small variations, even on items that are made in large quantities on the same machines, make each item in fact unique.

Using just a photo from an off-the-shelf camera, or even a mobile phone, FeaturePrint “sees” and converts these minute, random details into a unique mathematical identity.

From gears and circuit boards to watches and collectables, no two objects are exactly the same, even though they may have just come out of the same production line.

Features of No-Touch Serialization

Using just a photo from a standard off-the-shelf camera or mobile phone, you can serialize your items and trace them, eliminate fraudulent products such as counterfeits and gray markets, and reduce human error. All without touching, marking, or modifying your products, packaging, or production line.

‘Fingerprints’ physical items

Identifies individual physical items one-to-one, with just a photo. No alterations, no stickers, no tags, no markings, no etchings, no interfering with production.

Easy-to-use

Works anywhere, anytime. Mobile phone or off-the-shelf industrial camera. Cloud hosted.

Easy to Implement

Only need an off-the-shelf camera. No interfering with your production line or adding anything to your product. And we have standard APIs to easily integrate with any and all of your other systems.

Resilient in real-world conditions

Effectively handles variations such as wear & tear, partial views, and environmental changes. Scratch a QR code or break and RFID tag and you are blind. FeaturePrint doesn’t care.

Sustainable

No waste, printing, papers, stickers, adhesives, or ink. Does not interfere with re-use or recycling.

Start to Finish in 3 Steps

Take a Picture

Just take a photo of your part, product, or item. Use a mobile phone or industrial camera.

 

No marking, changing, adding, or manipulating. No pixy dust, holograms, barcodes, tags or stickers. No x-ray, spectral imaging, 3D mapping, or infra red.

FeaturePrint

Our patented algorithms automatically identify and codify the unique attributes and features inherently existing on the item.

 

It then creates a one-of-a-kind FeaturePrint® (a 'digital fingerprint') that can be used for identification, authentication, and traceability.The ONE of millions. Just like your own fingerprint.

Identify, Authenticate, Trace

You, your customer, your distributer, your quality control, or anyone you choose, can take a picture of the item and identify it, authenticate it, and trace it. Simple.

 

No special scanners, readers, or tools. Just a camera. Even the one on your phone.
