This was taken from an earlier RG statement.---For applications in public sector emergency response and situational awareness, the capabilities of the CDX product support the visualization capabilities of the Vigilys product line that we recently acquired from Kratos Defense and Security Solutions. The Vigilys software product was not core to Kratos’s service oriented business model. However, it presented Patriot with an exceptional opportunity to expand our public safety product offering and provide a compelling visual user experience for use in command and control centers. CDX is being embedded in Vigilys to facilitate access to data that is super imposed on satellite photo imagery for real time situational awareness, collaboration, command and control, and for emergency operations. The Vigilys product displays deployable assets and has the ability to pipe in live video or picture data direct from the scene from first responders. Vigilys has been demonstrated successfully in multiple implementations including Delaware County, Pennsylvania and the Philadelphia Regional Port Authority, with follow on projects expected there in the next year. Several other Vigilys opportunities have been quoted and are expected to result in near term revenues, as well as pull through sales opportunities for the CDX software. The acquisition of the Vigilys assets from Kratos and the hiring of their key personnel provided a cost effective opportunity for Patriot to acquire a synergistic product line that we expect to be cash flow positive after three quarters. The complementary nature of the Vigilys product to CDX allows Patriot an advantage to exploit this technology more effectively than Kratos could. The Vigilys product levers our core data sharing capabilities, our existing customer base, and established relationships with system integration partners.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I think that we are going to Chicago to meet our new partners who are bsed there. This will make it easier for them to present material and informatioin as well as make it easier for international SH's to attend. We were told that a fortune 1000 co. was evaluating our tech. and that it worked well. Here is a list (probably partial) of fortune 1000 companies based in Chicago.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://gislounge.com/freisin/blfortunetbl5.shtml Someone mentioned that we may also be going there to talk about settlements with the T3---if that is true, we should hear about it BEFORE the meeting. Also, that speculation makes me think that we would actully be joining them is some venture. The SHM site would therefore be a convenience for them to attend.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------It does seem to me that embedding the CDX into Vigily's platform widens the areas in which it could be used. I am excited and have been looking at airfares and hotels in the area. At least the date is far enough away that I could plan days off at work. GL, ads
