Security With Advanced Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWAT)
Industry: Services
A4S Security, Inc. (A4S), incorporated in January 2000, markets its high-resolution mobile digital video recording systems for security and surveillance. It was engaged by the Air Force to develop digital technology capable of capturing multiple feeds of video, audio and data, including the utilization of global positioning satellite (GPS) time, to provide simultaneous time and location synchronized views of multiple different video, audio and data streams of flight and weapons systems. The Company's software development is its core technology of its public transportation, facility surveillance and in-car digital video police products. ShiftWatch, its mobile digital recording product line, has been designed for transportation, law enforcement, and general security applications. Tapestream, its data capture technology, records high-resolution video at broadcast quality in a mobile environment to two different types of recording media, to both digital tape and a hard drive. ShiftWatch product line includes ShiftWatch TVS, designed for the needs of the mass transit industry; ShiftWatch LE, its police surveillance product; ShiftWatch FS, a ruggedized stationary system designed for facility surveillance; ShiftWatch VCC, a video command center that allows simultaneous viewing of multiple audio and video streams, and Tapestream, a software allowing streaming media to be written to removable digital tape. ShiftWatch products record to both an internal hard drive that is not removable, and a removable digital tape cartridge or removable hard drive. The ShiftWatch TVS is a product specifically designed for the transportation industry. The system incorporates up to 16 cameras for use in a bus, light rail vehicle, or train. It records continuously and incorporates broadcast quality video resolution using Motion Picture Experts Group2 (MPEG2) file format (the same as on a digital versatile disc, DVD). This system incorporates its Tapestream technology that writes digital video to digital tape, versus competing systems that write to analog video tape or hard disk. During the year ended December 31, 2005, A4S announced that its new ShiftWatch Video Advertising Delivery System (VADS) is to be installed through a partnership with the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority in a pilot program to provide an up-to-the-minute advertising and entertainment solution in its buses. The law enforcement ShiftWatch product includes a forward facing high-resolution zoom camera, an interior rear seat camera, and an optional externally facing rear camera. It also includes two wireless microphones for the officer to wear to catch all of the critical audio of a situation. Our solution was designed to pass the baggy test. ShiftWatch is designed to catch the action and encode the GPS information, identifying where the item was tossed. The Company is developing a new version of its ShiftWatch LE product. ShiftWatch FS is designed for use in facilities where surveillance and recording of activities is required. The Company's system enables a method of archiving massive amounts of data in an around-the-clock capability with accessibility. The ShiftWatch Video Command Center is a digital video management tool. The VCC allows the user to replay single or multiple video feeds simultaneously using GPS time synchronization, thereby allowing the user to view a single incident from multiple angles with GPS synchronized replay of all audio and video streams. The VCC can combine, view or archive files from any ShiftWatch surveillance system. ShiftWatch ERV is in the development stage. Designed specifically for emergency response vehicle installations, ShiftWatch ERV is designed to allow first responders to capture an incident on video. Tapestream is a software development project that had its genesis in the MIL-4000 project developed by us for the United States Air Force and is the core of each of its products. The technology that the Company developed enables the time-synchronized writing of multiple streams of video, audio and other digital data t
