Mobile Detect Inc.

Mobile Detect's unique radiological surveillance networks measure radiation, distinguish between licit (e.g., medical patients) and illicit radioactive substances, and visually present this information to security responders in real-time for complete Radiological Situational Awareness.

The mobile and static radiation detectors in the RadWatch distributed networks identify radiological material at distances up to 600 meters, and report radiation readings to a central server. This data is interpreted in real-time to determine location-based threats, alert first responders, and provide authorities with Radiological Situational Awareness. Integration with existing security systems, email, PDAs and other wireless devices allows for instantaneous delivery of key relevant information to first responders and decision makers.

Mobile Detect systems can be deployed in various locations such as at public transit stations, airports, marine ports, and can be installed in police cars. 
Mobile Detect has had an Airport RadWatch system deployed at the Ottawa International Airport since 2006.  A new project to extend this system to include Special Nuclear Material detection will start in late 2009.  A project to develop and deploy radiological explosive detection in the Edmonton Transit System will begin in mid 2009.  Cubic Security Systems Inc. exclusively provides Mobile Detect technology to the public transit market. 

Mobile Detect Inc. specializes in developing and producing high-quality networked radiation detection systems. These RadWatch products were developed in cooperation with Canadian departments and agencies such as CBRN Research & Technology Initiative (CRTI), the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Health Canada, Department of National Defence, Transport Canada, and the Ottawa International Airport.

SeaBotix

In today's world, there is a growing requirement to protect our home ports, waterways and vessels. The use of an ROV offers many benefits to many different organizations within the government. The LBV offers an excellent platform to inspect hulls for objects or contraband, search home ports and waterways for potential danger and even locate mines.

Using the SeaBotix LBV takes away the need to put human divers at risk. Additionally, the LBV has a reduced manpower requirement and can often accomplish the task in a shorter timeframe. LBV provides the ability to identify and evaluate the course of action. This will aid dive teams when required.

SeaBotix offers a wide range of solutions to meet the requirements of today's Maritime Security needs. Through experience gained working with clients the system specifications seem to fall into requiring:

  • Rapid deployment
  • Powerful
  • Ease of operation
  • Sonar
  • Positioning
  • Field serviceable

To meets these requirements the SeaBotix LBV150SE2 or LBV150SE-52 are ideal; the LBV150SE-52 offers increased stability with dual vertical thrusters and the ability to add the patented crawler skid for unprecedented ability for ship hull inspections.
The use of sonar enables quick object location to acquire visual identification. Fit a grabber for object retrieval and in poor light/visibility situations the addition of external LED lighting helps light the way.




Semantic Systems
ai-one™ the easy way of making intelligent applications

semantic system ag is a Swiss based company that licenses its core technology, ai-one™ for applications requiring intelligent functions. semantic system ag brings the first generation of biologically inspired intelligence [BII] to the market.

ai-one™ is a fundamental technology that transforms information into a generalized rule set and processing environment. ai-one™ is capable of multiple higher-order concept formation, i.e. it can learn new concepts by taking multiple layers of context information into account such as visual information structures in pictures or the whole range of lexical, syntactic, semantic and pragmatic context in text. These information structures are transformed into generalized rule sets, which can then be applied to further input facts. When incorporated into products as software or embedded as a chip solution, ai-one™ enables solutions that perform new functions at order of magnitude improvements in cost/performance.

The engineers of semantic system ag have developed a first generation holosemantic data space which can "think" like a biologic brain. The holosemantic data space enables to run complex thought and analytical processes in a fully controlled n-dimensional data space, where information will be recognized, stored and logic processes applied.

Sensear

Sensear’s Smart Hearing Protection devices simultaneously isolate and enhance speech while suppressing damaging background noise so users can clearly and safely communicate in high noise environments.

Sensear devices offer a complete high noise communication solution by enabling users to communicate face to face for close range, device to device for short range (50 feet) and via connection to two way radio and bluetooth cell phone for longer distance communication. And because Sensei devices reduce background noise to a safe level, users can now communicate clearly while still being aware of their surroundings which enhance safety.

Sensear’s patent pending SENS (speech enhancement, noise suppression) technology enhances speech in continuous, impact and intermittent high noise situations. As opposed to most hearing protection devices, SENS technology specifically targets speech isolation and enhancement while suppressing harmful background noise. Sensear devices are available in Ear Muff (SM) and Ear Plug (SP). The new SMxSR enables communication in high noise short range situations thus replacing the need for two way radios. It delivers an innovative device to device work group communication solution.

Sensear’s technology is setting a new standard in hearing protection and is making a major impact on hearing loss prevention in the industrial, public safety and military sectors.

Spark Integration

Spark’s DIOS (Distributed Integration Operating Schema) is an Information Exchange tool dedicated to resolve the complex problem of communicating information between heterogeneous technologies. Using DIOS, engineers can build communication frameworks for various electronic systems to exchange information (1) between components to form integrated device networks, (2) with command, control and communications systems and (3) with centralized systems such as the enterprise service buses (ESBs).

Typical scenarios involve ‘edge’ devices such as sensors, so-called since they sit at the edge of complex information networks. For example, Spark has worked in robotics where scenarios include intra-robot links (sensors and other devices within a specific UxV), inter-robot communication (collaboration between sensors on different UxVs) and the integration of devices into centralized systems to create powerful ‘systems of systems’. DIOS disintermediates each component and manages environmental issues that complicate interoperability. DIOS cuts through barriers at the following levels:

  1. Transport – allowing components to leverage all available network paths
  2. Hardware –resolving differences between hardware platforms
  3. OS – enabling communications between different operating systems/versions
  4. Code – automating native code generation to allow developers to work in each system’s native programming language
  5. Distribution – managing the distribution to different targets, dynamic information routing/messaging and information matching
