The company's first to market Intelligent Video application, Flinch ™, is a gaming app available in the US for iOS devices. The applicability of Intelligent Video will cross a wide range of industries and consumer interactions - from HR recruiting and job interviews, to market research focus groups as well as consumer applications, such as an app that broadcasts the vibe of a chat room. The market opportunity for Intelligent Video is significant, as individuals seek more intimate relationships with family, friends and social media connections, and businesses look to develop stronger and more nuanced relationships with their customers.
