Visualant recently announced that its Spectral Pattern Matching technology has received a third patent, U.S. Patent No. 8,076,630. The patent issued is entitled “System and Method of Evaluating an Object Using Electromagnetic Energy.”
Visualant is focused on bringing to market new methods of security used in combatting counterfeiting, forgery and fraud prevention, and homeland security, among other applications. Their SPM technology uses controlled illumination with specific bands of light to establish a unique spectral signature for both individual and classes of items. The resulting signatures are then able to be matched against a database to aid in authenticating items or substances.
SPM technology was developed by Tom Furness and Brian Schowengerdt, who have been able to create a proprietary method of mapping colors at the photon, or light particle level. This mapping can then be used in the authentication process. Visualant is determined to protect its IP via a strategy of aggressive patent acquisition.
Ron Erickson, Visualant CEO, said, “We are very pleased to receive our third patent covering our SPM technology. We expect more patents to be issued as we build the intellectual property foundation for Visualant’s business and move into the marketplace with diverse applications of our SPM technology. With the issuance of this patent we again want to acknowledge the extraordinary work of our patent counsel, Frank Abramonte of the Seed Intellectual Property Group PLLC.”
