VIASPACE will begin pursing opportunities to develop real-time inference, expert system and sensor data fusion-based security solutions for the growing homeland security market using NASA Sensor Fusion Technology. The company has the advantage of using its SHINE interface engine technology to target security applications in the boarder, port, maritime and aviation industry.
This is perfect timing as the homeland security market continues to grow strongly on a steady pace. Governments and private sectors spent approximately $55 billion in 2006. Civitas Group LLC predicts that the homeland security market will continue to grow steadily at an annual growth rate of 8-10% in the coming years.
VIASPACE is already well established in the homeland security sector. Currently, they are working with L3 Communications to deliver advanced maritime cargo container security solutions for the Department of Homeland Security.
The CEO of VIASPACE, Dr. Carl Kukkonen, stated that there is a great need for next-generation security products. He sees plenty of potential for VIASPACE as the company uses NASA pioneered technology to meet the demand, and to develop industry-leading solutions.
