Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 20, 2025) - FendX Technologies Inc. (CSE: FNDX) (OTCQB: FDXTF) (FSE: E8D) (the "Company" or "FendX"), an innovative surface protection company developing their technology-based solutions to reduce the spread of harmful pathogens and support a cleaner, safer world, is pleased to announce that its CEO, Dr. Carolyn Myers, has filed a provisional patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The application, titled "AI Adaptive App Pathogen Detection Platform" dated June 25, 2025, will be assigned to FendX as part of its expanding portfolio of hygiene-related technologies.
The invention described in the patent application is being designed to combine mobile-based imaging, biosensor technology, and artificial intelligence ("AI") to enable real-time detection of pathogens on surfaces using a mobile device such as a smartphone. The aim is to develop a portable, intelligent and user-friendly diagnostic tool for both consumer and professional use.
"Traditional diagnostic methods are powerful but often take time to detect and identify pathogens, and they're usually limited to lab settings," said Dr. Carolyn Myers, FendX CEO and inventor. "This invention is part of our ongoing commitment to making surface protection smarter and I believe it shows how mobile devices and AI can work together to bring advanced pathogen detection directly to the user."
