AVID has launched the MiniTracker 4 universal microchip scanner for veterinary practices, border control, rescue organisations and animal wardens.
The company says the MiniTracker 4 has been designed to make microchip scanning faster, more reliable and less stressful for a wide range of animals.
The MiniTracker 4 reads ISO standard microchips up to 20cm.
A silent mode disables the audible beep to reduce stress for nervous animals.
Bluetooth connectivity pairs the scanner with mobile devices and apps, including the FEI Horse App.
On-board memory stores the last 20 scans with date and time stamps, with expandable memory via a card.
Power options are 4x AA batteries or USB-C, including use with a power bank.
The unit, which is chemical-resistant, reads all four current companion animal microchip standards.
Richard Cratchley, Sales Manager at AVID, said: "With the MiniTracker 4 we’ve created the ideal balance of portability, power and innovation.
"Features like silent mode, extended read range and Bluetooth integration help professionals scan animals quickly and reliably."
