Title: TraceTrack


1
TraceTrack Technology, Limited
2
The Opportunity
  • Immediate commercialization of an advanced
    technology for ETD in cargo and baggage. Follow
    on opportunity in mail, parcels, containers,
    nuclear and biological agent detection.

3
The Company
  • Incorporated in 2002 by Ornath and Kostelitz for
    the development and commercialization of
    AUTOMATED EXPLOSIVE TRACE DETECTION technology.
  • Supported by the Israeli Security Agency (ISA)
    and the US TSWG.

4
The Technology
  • Unique trace collection which extracts samples
    from inside as well as outside of baggage.
  • Compatible with existing analytical instruments.
  • Low cycle times estimated at lt20 seconds.
  • May integrate into in-line systems.
  • A scalable concept for cargo as well as baggage.
  • False positives less than 1.

Current Performance
  • Challenge conditions
  • External multi-generation C4 fingerprints.
  • Internal bulk C4 and TNT.
  • Unperturbed clean room prep.
  • Simulated shock and vibration
  • Periodic evaluations by the ISA.
  • Report of results follows

TraceTrack Features
Manual Automated TraceTrack
Detection rate External Fingerprint Depends on operator and procedures. 99
Detection rate Internal traces and bulk explosive 0 85 to 99
Operation cost Manpower and training intensive. Reduced headcount.
Footprint Large Small or integrated
Reliability/Repeatability Subject to fatigue induced errors. No operators Proven performance
9
Competitive Technologies
TECHNOLOGY DISDVANTAGES
CT-EDS Computed Tomography High cost and large footprint.
ETD Manual external trace detection. Manual Fatigue and error prone technique.
QR Quadrupole resonance Not certified. Limited sensitivity.
X-RAY X-ray imaging Fatigue and error prone. No direct explosive detection.
10
Competitive Environment
  • No other automated trace sampling method is
    imminent.
  • The competition is seen as human screeners,
    estimated to cost 50,000 per shift per year.
  • The long-term threat is a totally integrated
    most common threats detection system, but none
    are seen as imminent or cost-effective at this
    time.

Market Potential
12
The Broader Market
  • Global targets
  • Airports
  • Seaports
  • Government Facilities
  • High Profile Office Buildings
  • Rail and bus transit
  • Military bases
  • Sports stadiums
  • Sensitive sites (amusement parks, malls, etc.)

13
Summary
  • Need exists
  • Technology works
  • Value proposition on target
  • Resource requirements minimal relative to
    potential gain
  • Return can be fast, attractive, sustainable
  • Time to confirm all is minimal
  • A window of opportunity exists.

14
Major Milestones
  • Develop and test prototypes.
  • Obtain ISA/TSA validation of the technology.
  • Partner with an established supplier.
  • Obtain TSA certification.
  • Penetrate the domestic airport cargo market.
  • Address carry-on screening.
  • Address other markets.

15
Near term objectives
  • Additional investment
  • Fully automated, pass through prototype.
  • Certification by the TSA.
  • A cargo scale product.
  • A domestic US presence.
  • Market development
  • A domestic US partner.
  • Integrated product offering(s).
  • Marketing
  • Manufacturing as required.
  • Development of additional products
