axonX Receives Wall Street Journal 2006 Technology Innovation Award for
Security (Facilities)
Sparks, MD (September 11,
2006) – axonX LLC, the world’s
leading developer of video-based fire, smoke & intrusion detection
technology, today won the Wall Street Journal’s 2006 Innovation Award
for Security (Facilities).
axonX was selected from over 600
applications. Winners were judged based on whether the technology truly
represents a breakthrough from conventional methods, rather than just an
incremental improvement.
“We are honored to be recognized by the
Wall Street Journal for our video-based detection system,” said axonX
founder George Privalov. “The award validates our conviction that SigniFire™
will revolutionize the way businesses and homes protect their assets and
facilities.”
axonX’s SigniFire™
video system detects fires faster by spotting them from a distance. The
company’s technology applies advanced, artificial intelligence to
analyze live video images obtained by ordinary security surveillance
cameras and identifies fire and smoke, while also alerting appropriate
personnel.
“It’s like having
somebody watching these cameras 24/7, only better,” said CEO Mac Mottley.
“SigniFire™ never loses its attention, never takes breaks, and
never has bad days.”
SigniFire™
detects flames, smoke, and intrusion, making it the most advanced video
detection system in the world today.
