Overview

Our clients represent market and government leaders across multiple business sectors and spanning five continents. From Fortune 50 to up-and-coming, from public to private, from biotechnology to aerospace – Bear Code provides experienced application development.

Because some of the work we do for our clients is inherently confidential, we strive to act in a manner reflective of that responsibility. Therefore, we take the general position of not posting our clients' names and business on our website. Our responsibility is to represent their best interests, even in how we market and promote our services. We feel this reflects our commitment to our clients and is an important consideration for prospective clients.

That said, certain clients have permitted us to promote our relationships with them as examples of the quality of Bear Code work.

Last Mile Connections

Last Mile Connections provides new and innovative ways for bandwidth intensive users to address their network interconnection challenges and delivers a range of superior, more cost-efficient services. Using a carrier neutral online reverse auction system, Last Mile Connections brings together buyers and sellers more efficiently than ever before.

In collaboration with Vermont based Signal Advertising, Bear Code has written "The Exchange" -- a web application that promises "to do for the telecom industry what Expedia did for the travel industry." Extremely pleased with the new platform, Last Mile Connections has redeployed their core business processes to utilize this new e-marketplace. >Learn More Article on The Exchange in Phone+ Magazine

Lumidigm

Lumidigm was growing at a rate common to newly funded technology companies. The technology behind the company is an exciting new multiple sensor biometric device. Meanwhile, their hardware expertise out-distanced their software expertise, and they needed to be making progress on some critical minutia tracking algorithms, in order to satisfy their customers and their investors. Additionally, they had some in-house code that was written in Matlab that they needed to convert to true commercial grade code.

Our first task was to take their Matlab code and port it to C code, so that it would run at acceptable performance levels. Having proven our worth, our next task was to develop ridge tracking software to prepare images for minutia extraction. The company had the buy option for a little less money, but they realized that the Bear Code build option gave them far and away the greatest combination of optimized performance, license freedom and extensible/maintainable code. Our latest task was to take an open source Wavelet transformation package in Matlab, and port to C for commercial grade performance. >Learn More

The Rendon Group

The Rendon Group (TRG) is a Global Strategic Communications Consultancy providing products and services to both public and private sector clients. To date, TRG has worked in eighty (80) countries, frequently on location in a conflict environment, and has considerable experience in establishing field offices to support program objectives.

Bear Code has developed for the Rendon Group multiple web-based applications that rely on a robust database backend. A staple of Rendon's requirements is rapid development, and they keep working with Bear Code because we continue to deliver. >Learn More Article on John Rendon in The Independent

Roxar/VEGO 3D

Roxar, along with Schlumberger and Halliburton, is one of the premier authors and distributors of reservoir analysis software. Reservoir analysis software requires extremely sophisticated 3D visualization approaches.

In late 2004, Roxar purchased the rights to the VEGO Suite of reservoir analysis software tools. The VEGO Suite was the product of Softplast – a Bear Code partner company.

20/20 Gene Systems

20/20 Gene Systems is a young biotechnology company that is chasing the promise of 'personalized medicine'. Winners of the 2003 ASM Resources Early Stage Venture competition, 20/20 Gene Systems has been the recipient of NIH, TEDCO and MD Bio grants and has forged partnerships with Novarits, OSI Pharmaceuticals and Celgene.

Bear Code's project with 20/20 Gene Systems was a 3D image analysis application to be used in conjunction with their Multi-Replica Blotting (MRB) Kit (Xeroxed copies of Westerns from a single sample). The successful application development was a commercial proof of concept of the MRB technology and allowed 20/20 Gene System to close a distribution deal with Kodak's Scientific Imaging Systems Unit, and to secure TEDCO and MD Bio grants.

Global Haptics

Global Haptics is the developer of the geOrb, a patented computer mapping technology that enables users to shape and navigate in 3D simply and intuitively. The geOrb is the brainchild of Michael Wallace, an ex-Sandia scientist. The geOrb is the first hardware device that actually maps physical space.

Bear Code developed a Beta CAD program for use with the geOrb, as well as a Plug-in for the 3-D modeling application, Rhino. Discussions are ongoing for Bear Code to develop a similar Plug-in for Alias Wave's Maya

AMD/Coatue

Coatue is one of a handful of companies in the world developing organic memory, or so-called thin-film polymer memory (TFPM). The Coatue technology originated in a Russian lab in Siberia. Originally funded in part by AMD, in 2003 Coatue's technology was purchased outright by AMD.

Bear Code helped Coatue migrate the TFPM technology and technology team from Siberia to the Coatue offices in Boston, MA.
