Appui au développement d'un dispositif biométrique connecté pour chevaux

FY 2019-20

Summary
Ossicles Technologies Inc. is a young Quebec company working in the development and marketing of technological tools dedicated to performance horses. In order to grow and innovate in the field of environmental control of horses, Ossicles is currently working on the development of a product that will facilitate the recording and transmission of biometric data and geolocation of horses. Specifically, Ossicles wants to develop a device allowing the telemetry of biometric data (temperature, heart rate, accelerometer) and geolocation data (GPS) of the horse by means of a small electronic card including sensors, microprocessor and BLE radio, integrated inside an auditory occlusion plug for horses. This development requires the implementation of a connected occlusion device that meets the requirements of small dimensions, low cost and low power consumption. To do this, Ossicles is seeking C2T3's expertise in wireless telecommunications and interconnected objects (IoT) to support the development of this innovative product. For Ossicles, this project is an important vehicle for innovation and growth in order to position itself competitively in the North American market for high-value occlusive biometric products for horses.
