>>>	Boeing Company and Lockheed Martin have their bids in on TSAT, the highly secure transformational military satellite. EMS beam forming technology plays a role in both proposals, with EMS engaging in co-engineering and risk-reduction efforts to contribute discriminating performance on the TSAT payload antenna systems. According to Marc Johansen, Boeing director of space and intelligence systems, “TSAT has a better foundation for success than recent military satellite programs that ran into technical difficulty…because the Air Force chose to reduce risk early in TSAT system development by spending about $1 billion on contractor work prior to the contract award to mature technology and ensure a sound system design. – Space News, Aug. 6, 2007

The DataNex series of products is ideal for rural carriers with in-band spectral capacity as well as others seeking a rapid, cost-effective deployment solution.

DataNex

Because of the speed of deployment, the DataNex products have been widely utilized in hurricane-damaged areas of Mississippi, Florida, and New Orleans as a way of rapidly restoring T-1 service to cell sites in those areas.

>>>	"LXE is taking a significant step toward integrating various forms of data collection technologies within the warehouse. At ProMat, the company introduced a platform (ARIA) on which data collection technologies – including bar codes, RFID, and speech recognition – could all be seamlessly integrated to improve the executions of warehouse transactions."

>>>	The unique HX2 rugged arm-wearable computer frees a warehouse operator’s hands to pick inventory more efficiently than picking done with a traditional data collection computer. Customers will see significant increases in picking efficiency and accuracy – similar to those benefits found in a traditional voice-directed picking application - without the effort of integrating voice software into their application. And the HX2 is voice-enabled so when customers are ready to integrate voice into their application, they won’t need to purchase new mobile computing hardware.
