Chicago, IL – July 17, 2006 – InfrAegis, Inc. (Ia™) today announced its
ia55000™ Nuclear and Radiation Detection and Spectral Analysis Systems for
portable and mobile applications. The portable system is available in both hard
case and backpack configurations. The
mobile system is designed for installation in cars, trucks, trains, helicopters,
boats, ships, subways, ferries, and on motorcycles. Both systems are based on a sophisticated
core technology platform.
“The ia55000 is the gold standard of specific isotope
identification, for both medical and WMD isotopes, and provides highly reliable
estimates of volume,” said Gregory E. Webb, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of InfrAegis. “It statistically eliminates the possibility of false negatives
because of its unique algorithms, isotope specific identification and
compensation for background radiation.” According to The New York Times,
New York City police and other users
have experienced (and/or respond to) hundreds of false positives per day from
gamma pagers and other systems under test.
The ia55000 is a high sensitivity threat isotope
detection system that distinguishes between harmless medical isotopes and
nuclear/radioactive threat isotopes. It
has wireless communications to a base station command, control and analytic
system. The operator is alerted to
threat isotopes through a series of LEDs.
An audio signal is also provided.
The ia55000 has GPS and the following options: GPS with
inertial, wireless high definition wide angle camera—day and night, PDA, and
wireless metropolitan network. Simultaneously, the command and control is
alerted identifying the specific threat isotope and the approximated size of the
threat. Special procedures or protocols
are then activated to guide military and law enforcement personnel, port
operators, first responders, and government
agencies.
The portable system has been designed, tested and placed
into a hard case to meet the needs of police and the law enforcement
community. Designed for hands-free
operation with simple alerts, the ia55000 can be integrated into current
operations with ease.
“Sales will only
be made to organizations or personnel with a specific need or authority and
credentials will be validated” said Mr. Webb.
“Distribution will be handled through licensed OEMs, direct sales
fulfillment, and qualified first responder and law enforcement
communities.”
