Andrews Corp is a biometric sensory company providing solutions to remedy object identification,
positioning and automation. Andrews differentiates itself by bringing to market a patent pending
sensory products. Our products execution approach processes and expresses the details of an object
as a unique algorithm, rather than matching it against a stored image on a database. This process will
eliminate the need to store images of millions of individual objects on a database, reduce operating
costs, and maximize system-wide efficiency. Our process will allow for seamless integration of
biometric sensors into existing systems, and enable secure virtual transactions.
Market Opportunity:
