I’d like to tell you about a crowd funding project that I think represents a number of opportunities for you. I’m involved with biometric technology on more than just a casual basis. Beyond the C4ISR application, biometrics is a huge enabler for an area that is broadly described by the term authentication. It is a huge deal in military, government and business circles especially in the financial sector where payment processing is exploding.

I’m familiar with IRITech INC. and their IRIS Shield scanner, which I feel could be militarized to provide some much needed capability COTS. The IRITech scanner is excellent, cost effective and works reliability. It can also be integrated with a smart device or a USB enabled Comms package.

IRITech, has launched a crowd funding project that you can find out about by visiting this site: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/fidelys-the-world-s-first-iris-recognition-enabled-smartwatch The product is a Fidelys Smart watch that incorporates Iris scan technology as a means of authentication. The applications include computer security and authentication, access control, identity validation, vehicle access and control. You are going to want to check this out. Readers involved in startup funding should pay particular attention to this project. Stated capital requirements are nominal $350,000, and I’d add a 20% contingency, so say $420,000 to $450,000. It may turn out to be a pretty good IPO candidate.

Definitely, check it out!
