DataDots - What are they?	Actual size of a DataDot     Magnified Dot
DataDots consists of a tiny discs, about the size of a grain of sand, each laser etched with multiple lines of code. The code is unique for each asset. The code is stored on a national database. In some instances the DataDot simply carries the "primary identifier" issued by the manufacturer - for example the VIN as issued by the manufacturer.
DataDots can simply be brushed on to assets, and stay there for the life of the asset. For larger assets, such as motor vehicles, the DataDots are sprayed on. DataDot Technology has patented its own innovative spray process, which can now spray a complete car. A car is fitted with 10,000 DataDots, most often applied at places of assembly or in the aftermarket through approved fitment centres.
DataDots are most widely used to protect motor vehicles, motor cycles, trailers, marine craft, business and personal assets. They are also called "microdots", a microdot system or simply DataDots.
Identification Technology
Datadot technology work by marking each asset they are applied to with a unique and individual code. This code is then recorded on a database and matched with the oother assets and ownweship identifiers. In some cases cases the the code is the primary manufacturers identifier - for example a car's Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
Identification technology is not a new concept. For a long time cars have had unique VINs, engines and other equipment have had serial numbers, designer clothing has had brand labels and so on. These identifying tags have developed for may different reasons.
Technology you cannot duplicate
Datadot technology is different. They are virtually impossible to reproduce. Unlike other identifying labels, thieves cant make fake copies. This attribute has benefits for many industries. DataDot technology takes tkaes identification to the next level. It helps to protect fraud and provide quality assurance.
Virtually Irremovable
DataDots are virtually irremovable. Take for example DataDots that are applied to a vehicle. It is conceivable possible to remove all of the 10,000 dots, however it would be totally cost ineffective to do so. Moreover, just one tiny dot has to remain for the caror asset to be identified as stollen. The risk of thieves getting caught with a DataDot protected items is significantly increased.
An Identifying Revolution
These unique attributes of DataDot technologies mean we create security and authentication for home, business and industry in a new and innovative way. Our technology can identify assets impossible to be tagged before and together with our database.
