WASHINGTON — ICx Technologies (NASDAQ: ICXT), a developer of advanced sensor technologies for homeland security, force protection and commercial applications, announced today that, in response to a high-priority need, it had provided four SkyWatch™ towers, two DefendIR™ thermal cameras, four IBAC biological sensor units and two Illuminator™ cameras to help insure security for the inauguration of President Barack Obama at the Capital and on the National Mall. The equipment was provided to the U.S. Park Police, in cooperation with the National Park Service; ICx personnel conducted pre-event training for security personnel, and members of ICx’ technical staff will also be on site for product and staff support. SkyWatch Towers are ubiquitous around the nation. Law enforcement officials in cities such as New Orleans, San Diego and New York City use them for surveillance and crowd control at special events (Mardi Gras, the Super Bowl, NASCAR races, etc.) and others use them for various purposes, including parking lot security. Towers may be outfitted with radars, thermal cameras, loud speakers and sensors – whatever is deemed necessary for the job. DefendIRs are industry leading mid-range thermal imagers that can see in complete darkness and through a multitude of environmental conditions including smoke, rain, snow, dust and dense fog. The DefendIR is based on Forward Looking InfraRed (FLIR) technology developed for the U.S. Military. The IBAC™ provides early warning of biological aerosol threats. It facilitates the process ofentifying bio-terror agents to allow timely containment, treatment and remediation because it is continuously monitoring the air. IBAC units are designed to detect concentrated levels of biological aerosols, which can include bacterial spores (such as B. anthracis, which causes anthrax), bacteria (such as Y. pestis, which causes plague), viruses (such as smallpox) and toxins (such as ricin). The Illuminator is a unique deterrence system that utilizes a day/low-light CCD camera with a high-powered spotlight to detect, deter and immobilize intruders. The spotlight on the Illuminator is available in both a 7.5 and 12 million-candlepower (MCP) option, and can detect and temporarily disorient intruders within a one-mile radius. “As a D.C.-based company, we were proud to be able to assist with providing security for this critical event,” said Hans Kobler, CEO of ICx. “We also provide our equipment and personnel at the Statue of Liberty, and ICx products are in place at other iconic U.S. locations, such as Hoover Dam.” About ICx Technologies™ ICx Technologies is a leader in the development and integration of advanced sensor technologies for homeland security, force protection and commercial applications. Our proprietary sensors detect andentify chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive threats, and deliver superior awareness and actionable intelligence for wide-area surveillance, intrusion detection and facility security.
