FLXT News Flexpoint Exploring Security Uses for Sensor Technology
DRAPER, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:FLXT) today announced they have
been approached by industry experts who are looking to adapt the Bend
Sensor® technology to the security industry,
including uses to monitor fences.
One of the initial concepts calls for placing Bend Sensors along posts
in a fence application to monitor movement along the fence. Relying on
the sensors’ ability to measure motion or
movement, the sensors could distinguish a human contacting the fence or
attempting to climb over or cut through the fence. If the resistance
created by the movement exceeds the set threshold, the system would
signal an alert to notify owners or agencies of the attempted entrance.
“This is a very exciting application and one
which we can easily adapt to our technology,”
stated Flexpoint’s CEO Clark Mower. “Numerous
companies and organization use fences to protect their borders and
businesses. An application like this has the potential to significantly
contribute to our fiscal future.”
