Hawkeye Global Receives Certification for Remote Radiation Sensing Capability

Hawkeye Global successfully completed a demonstration to the University of Massachusetts Lowell Radiation Lab of its capability to transmit a radiation alarm from a Thermo Electron Corporation (NYSE: TMO) radiation sensor to Hawkeyes 2020 remote wireless transceiver. Once Hawkeye received the alarm, it transmitted it and reported the event at the Companys remote multi-point Intelligent Control Center also known as the base station.

(PRWEB) March 25, 2004 -- Hawkeye Global successfully completed a demonstration to the University of Massachusetts Lowell Radiation Lab of its capability to transmit a radiation alarm from a Thermo Electron Corporation (NYSE: TMO) radiation sensor to Hawkeyes 2020 remote wireless transceiver. Once Hawkeye received the alarm, it transmitted it and reported the event at the Companys remote multi-point Intelligent Control Center also known as the base station.

This capability allows Hawkeye customers in both the Security and Transportation marketplace a mobile platform for transmitting alarms via satellite or the internet when the environment surrounding the asset has exceeded acceptable thresholds of gamma radiation," says Paul M. Houle, CEO of Hawkeye Global. The demonstration was conducted at the Universitys Radiation Lab, and was certified by David Medich, Ph.D., the universitys Director of Radiation Safety.

According to Richard Oxford, Director of Strategic Accounts for Thermo Electrons Environmental Instruments Division, We have a wide range of security products and applications for the detection of chemicals, biohazards, radioactive materials and explosives. Hawkeyes remote monitoring and control capabilities integrated with our security products provide a seamless integrated solution for mobile security and early detection capabilities that address national security challenges well into the 21st century."

Thermo Electrons security products include a comprehensive range of fixed and portable instruments used for chemical, radiological, nuclear and explosives detection. These products have been used in airports, ports, embassies, cargo facilities, border crossings, critical infrastructure and other high-threat facilities for over five decades.
