Research abstract
ChromoLogic LLC is developing Quantitative Optical Traceability Technology ("QuanTEK") to meet the need for a secure, rapid, and cost effective authentication of electronic components. QuanTEK consists of optical enrollment and authentication subsystems that allow the operators at multiple points in the supply chain to securely transmit information related to the identity and origin of electronic components without the need for part marking or relational databases. Furthermore, the system enables automation capabilities amenable to broad adoption in high volumes. QuanTEK will lead to an unambiguous, cost effective, and rapid system for tracking electronic components within the global supply chain. Approved for Public Release 14-MDA-7739 (18 March 14).
