Marketwired
PowerSafe Technology Corporation (PINKSHEETS: PSFT) announced today
that its wholly owned subsidiary Amplification Technologies Inc.
(ATI) (www.ampti.net) has been selected by the US Army for a new
Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I grant. The grant
proposal, entitled "Novel Low Light Level Solid State Imaging
Arrays," is to study the feasibility of utilizing ATI's
breakthrough technology, as a replacement for image intensifier
(II) tubes, currently the mainstay of the very large night vision
market.
"This SBIR award demonstrates the value of the unique technology
that ATI has developed over the last few years," said Jack Mayer,
President of PowerSafe. "The replacement of II tubes with solid
state devices has thus far not been accomplished. We are cautiously
optimistic that this preliminary study will result in approaches to
accomplishing this very important goal that we will be able to
pursue with further funding."
The grant calls for approximately $70,000 in research and
development funds for the Phase I study. If the results are
promising, the Company could receive up to an additional $730,000
in transitional and Phase II funding.
