About Us
SmartBolus™ is a product of TenXsys. TenXsys has
been in business since 2002 and has
developed a number of animal monitoring
products. Initial products were
wildlife tracking devices which required
reliable, power conserving electronics
that needed to be able to withstand
harsh environments for several years.
Our engineering team has combined
experience of over 80 years.
In 2005 TenXsys was asked to begin
investigating the feasibility of
applying some of our existing technology
to a rumen bolus application. Since
mid-2007 we have had ongoing successful
trials at dairies.

manager and engineer at Hewlett Packard
for over 13 years where he delivered
many HP LaserJet printer products to
market.
