U.S. Army Awards Cyberlux a Contract for 24 WhiteEye Systems
March 15 2010 - 7:53AM
Business Wire
Cyberlux Corporation, (OTC Bulletin Board: CYBL), a leading
provider of LED lighting solutions, announced today that the United
States Army has purchased twenty-four WhiteEye Tactical Lighting
Tower Systems for use in the Iraqi theater of operation. The
WhiteEye systems procured are meant to increase the lighting
capability of the 142nd AHB’s aviation air support operations,
which has been using two BrightEye systems originally purchased and
deployed in mid-2008.
In keeping with all of the Cyberlux portable illumination
solutions, the Cyberlux WhiteEye Tactical Lighting Tower System
delivers the most energy efficient white LED lighting for portable
broad area illumination that is commercially available. Engineered
to provide ideal lighting for tactical and emergency response
situations, Cyberlux has designed the WhiteEye configuration to
flexibly illuminate any location or environment requiring rapid
setup, light-weight portability and extended battery operation when
electrical power is unavailable.
“We are pleased that the Army has chosen our WhiteEye System to
equip our troops in Iraq. The commercial grade WhiteEye is the
ideal lighting solution for the specific requirements of this
military operation and compliments our previously deployed flagship
BrightEye series overseas,” says Mark Schmidt, CEO of Cyberlux
Corporation. “Our tactical lighting systems continue to be well
received and in demand within the public and private marketplace.
As new requirements are brought to the attention of our
organization, we will either offer one of our of existing
solutions, or utilize our intellectual property portfolio to
innovate and develop a product according to the needs of our ever
growing client base,” added Schmidt.
Previously, the Cyberlux BrightEye System received the United
States Army’s 3rd Battalion, 142nd Assault Helicopter Battalion
(AHB), operational endorsement for maintenance and field operation
lighting. Additionally, it was deemed to be the preferred choice of
lighting by mechanics operating on the flight line to complete
sophisticated helicopter maintenance tasks such as night main rotor
ground track and balances, night tail rotor balances, night engine
high speed shaft balances and other general maintenance tasks that
require superior visibility for a safe, well lit work area.
The Cyberlux Tactical Illumination Systems are designed as
highly portable, visible and night-vision compatible illumination
systems for mission-critical tactical lighting where rapid
deployment and high-intensity lighting capability are required.
Using advanced optics, advanced solid-state lighting technology,
and light-weight advanced battery power, all contained in easily
transportable wheeled cases, the Cyberlux Tactical Lighting Systems
provide broad area visible white lighting and night-vision
compatible IR lighting capable of operating all night, performance
capabilities not available in traditional lighting systems.
