McQ Receives Research and Development Contracts and Delivers Production Surveillance Systems for U.S. Government Applications

Defense News: FREDERICKSBURG, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--McQ Inc.:

1. U.S. Army SBIR Phase II Contract for Acoustic Detection and Verification of Intrusions Against Military Facilities.
   
   McQ was awarded a Phase II SBIR contract to produce a prototype sensor system to uniquely identify when people attempt to make unauthorized entry into military facilities. The prototype system will discriminate people from other target types and provide an alert to Army security forces. This prototype will be delivered later this year.
2. Three U.S. Army Phase I SBIR Contracts have recently been awarded to McQ.
   
   One contract is to develop technology that will precisely locate the impact point of munitions including those that fail to detonate. A second one is to develop technology for a small battery powered personnel and vehicle detection radar integrated with Unattended Ground Sensors (UGS). A third contract is to develop UGS systems that locate tunnels and provide information to locate activity in the tunnel. These three SBIRs will be completed this year.
3. DARPA SBIR Phase I Contract for Integrating UGS with Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs).
   
   McQ has been awarded a contract to use UGS on the ground to identify targets of interest and connect the target to a UAV imager for maintaining contact with the target. McQ will demonstrate the technology in this Phase I effort.
4. U.S. Navy SBIR Phase I Contract to Monitor and Record Shipboard Shock and Vibration.
   
   McQ is performing a development effort for a long life system to measure and record the shock and vibration incurred by shipboard systems over their operational lifetimes. The Shock and vibration information will be used to determine the effect of environmental stresses on the performance of the systems.
5. U.S. Government Contracts with McQ for OmniSense® and OmniWatch® Security Systems.
   
   McQ has received a contract from DOE to provide OmniSense® UGS systems for protecting U.S. Government facilities. McQ has delivered a facility protection system to DOE for installation at a government site. McQ has delivered an OmniWatch® high resolution RF wireless video system integrated with McQ’s iScout® UGS to the government. This battery powered remote area surveillance system will be used by the government to protect facilities in foreign operation areas.
