We just received our official patent in the mail and are excited to share this news with you! Our patent grants us the exclusive right to create a robotic injection system to deliver vaccines, reproductive hormones, and liquid materials to domestic herd animals (not just limited to dairy cows!). 

Why is this important? A patent gives us the right for 20 years to stop others from copying, manufacturing, selling, or importing our invention without our permission. Additionally, we have the ability to transfer, license, or sell the patent if we ever decide this would be valuable. Having a patent for our technology allows us to focus on what we care about most- improving the lives of dairy cows and increasing farmers' profitability!

For those that are interested in greater detail of the scope of our patent: our patent includes a cooling-unit for storage of the liquid materials to be injected, a series of automatic gates to control the movement of herd animals, an RFID and camera ID reading system utilized for tracking identification numbers and medical history, a robotic arm to position and apply force in the injection process, and an injection mechanism for delivery injections to the animal. 

Cheers 🥛 !
