Projects

This page lists some of the projects we have worked on since we started over 15 years ago. As you can see, we have adapted our core technology of a low power, self contained RFID wildlife datalogger to many different projects and applications. We design everything in-house, both hardware and software, and manufacture almost everything ourselves here in Kent, England using 3D-printers and CNC-CAD manufacturing techniques. That means we can be very flexible, and can create custom solutions for PhD research projects, zoos and conservation projects quickly and at low cost, as well as larger, government-funded research.
