By Revolutionary wearable band uses patented ultra wide band technology to give dog owners and veterinarians' insight into a pet's overall health and well-being through the collection, analysis and presentation of data such as key vital signs and wellness indicators
CHANTILLY, VA, January 7, 2014 - Intersections Inc. (NASDAQ: INTX) today announced the launch of VOYCE, a technology breakthrough for pet owners. By combining this wearable technology with insightful guidance from some of the nation's leading dog professionals, dog owners will be able to better understand not only their pet's overall health but also recognize and understand trends in the dog's behavior, diet, exercise and habits. Subscribers will also have access to exclusive articles written by some of the nation's leading pet experts and content providers, like Dr. Alexandra Horowitz, PhD and NY Times Bestselling author of "Inside of a Dog", guiding them in making the best decisions when it comes to their dog's health and well-being.
"Being a leader in data privacy and protection for almost two decades, we have formulated another approach in data customization to bring knowledge and peace of mind to consumers," said Michael Stanfield, CEO of Intersections Inc. "Pets are an extension of our families and through this innovative technique we have found a way to help give them the ability to 'communicate' with their owners and veterinarians with exclusively licensed technology supplemented by our own patent pending technology we have developed. Of the 46 million dog owners, more than 60% have a strong emotional bond with their pets; and we expect these to be the early adopters for VOYCE."
This market is a perfect match for the powerful and dynamic communication technology of VOYCE; technology that helps create peace of mind for pet owners by giving them access to advanced information and provides objective historical data to veterinarians that has not been available in the past.
Assembled in Kenosha, Wisconsin, VOYCE is expected to be available in the summer of 2014, but consumers can get a first-hand look at this revolutionary new technology during its grand debut at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas or by going to www.mydogsvoyce.com.
"The team at our subsidiary, i4C Innovations, in collaboration with their team of bio-medical and animal experts, has done a tremendous job in developing an outstanding product and service that truly meets the needs of this market," said Stanfield. "I am excited about this long awaited launch and look forward to its positive impact on our company."
