A patent application has been lodged with IP Australia.
These projects reviewed commercialisation options, identified market segments, developed sections commercialisation plan and a short marketing flyer, see attached.
Interest in further development, investment and/or licensing the 3D imaging livestock management tool is being sought. Please contact the On-Farm Commercialisation Manager for more details.
