Drs. Furness and Schowengerdt and their laboratory development team brought a generation of experience to the Visualant SPM development process. Dr. Furness is known in many circles as the "Father of Virtual Reality." Dr. Schowengerdt is an internationally renowned leader in the field of color perception.
The patent issued by the United States Office of Patents and Trademarks is US Patent No. 7,996,173 and is entitled "Method, Apparatus and Article to Facilitate Distributed Evaluation of Objects Using Electromagnetic Energy."
Ron Erickson, Visualant Founder and CEO, stated, "We are very pleased to receive our first patent covering our SPM technology. Our science team is world-class. The issuance of this patent validates our belief that our technology is unique and transformative. 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."
