Splinternet
Expands Its Holdings in Anti-Terrorism Market By Acquiring Vidiation,
Inc.
Splinternet's
Integrated Unattended Sensor Network Detects Radiological Threats Alerting
Authorities to Dirty Bombs
Norwalk,
CT - April 30, 2008:
Splinternet Holdings, Inc., (OTC BB: SLNH.OB) announced today that it has closed
its acquisition of privately-held Vidiation,
Inc.,
a
development-stage radiation detection marketing company whose team of experts
will help to implement the commercialization of Splinternet's
proven
radiation detection architecture and alert system, DefenTect™.
Illinois-based
Vidiation, Inc., was formed in 2006 to market advanced homeland security
technologies as a defense against the worldwide threat of terrorism. Previously,
Vidiation and Splinternet had cross-reseller agreements for radiation detection
technologies. The companies are committed to creating a critical part of the
protection network against radiological terrorism.
Splinternet's
DefenTect™ gamma radiation detection system integrates a wide-area pervasive
grid of sensors, networked via IP, and a Web-enabled management and messaging
system. When high-energy gamma rays from dirty bomb substances interact with
Splinternet's GammaTect™ sensors, proprietary algorithms analyze the data and
alert authorities to radiation that may pose a security threat.
"Vidiation
and Splinternet are dedicated to developing integrated protection systems to
thwart illegal transport of radiological source material", said James Ackerly,
CEO of Splinternet. "By working together, next generation radiological detection
systems will be accelerated to market".
The
U.S.
regards the prospect of a radiological terrorist attack to be one of its most
serious security challenges, according to homeland security experts, Civitas.
The availability of a wide range of radioactive materials commonly used in
industry potentially provides attackers with increased opportunity to build
radiological dispersal devices (RDDs).
Cesium-137
,
commonly used for treatment in hospitals, or Cobalt-60,
used to
irradiate food, can be turned into terrorist weapons causing drastic economic,
psychological and sociological devastation. DefenTect™ can be deployed in
hospitals, at transit sites, seaports, government buildings, package handling
facilities, entertainment centers and border crossings to defend against
unlawful possession or transport of source materials and ultimately acts of
terrorism using radioactive materials.
