The first Metals Analysis Probe (MAP) portable XRF instrument was used at the Church Rock mine opticallyvariabledevices in New Mexico and in a U.S. patent was issued for the instrument. Now, keymaster, Inc. (KTI) has world-leading patent-pending technology in the areas of X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and elemental taggant technology. The company is pioneering the application of these technologies in the fields of brand protection/authentication, anti-counterfeiting, security, opticallyvariabledevices loss prevention and quality control. The world leader opticallyvariabledevices in digital watermarking solutions, today introduced Copy Detection, a covert security feature that can be applied to packaging, labels, tags and other printed documents, and tools to facilitate field inspection of suspected counterfeit goods. Through patented techniques in digital watermarking.

The International AntiCounterfeiting Coalition, a trade group focused on reducing counterfeiting, estimates that US business loses $200 billion annually due to counterfeit products. In addition to this large economic impact, counterfeiting also has significant safety implications in applications such as auto parts, aircraft parts, and military parts.
