Information As
Of February 5, 2007 |
'The global market
for applications for single-wall carbon nano-tubes was less
than $10 million in 2002 and is projected to exceed $200
million in 2007' '
OverviewNanoSensors, Inc.
was incorporated in 2003 and is a publicly-traded
nanotechnology development company based in Santa Clara,
California. The Company's principal business is the
development and marketing of sensors and instruments to
detect explosive (X), chemical (C) and biological (B) agents
(“BCX”), along with the management of intellectual property
derived there from that will enable NanoSensors to create
nanoscale devices.
Investment Highlights
-
The global market for applications for single-wall carbon
nano-tubes was less than $10 million in 2002 and is
projected to exceed $200 million in 2007.
-
The company announced on Feb. 5, 2007 that it entered into
a non-binding letter of intent to acquire substantially
all of the tangible and intangible assets of
privately-held DKL International, Inc. The acquisition
would move NanoSensors from a pre-revenue company to one
generating revenue, expand its management team, expand its
distribution network and expand its product line-up.
-
NanoSensors' first sensor under development is the Model
10 (“M10”), and it is a portable device (hand-held wand)
that can be used to screen people for explosives as they
enter into public facilities. The Company designed,
engineered and built prototypes of the M10 by integrating
several technologies.
-
The Company will expand from sensing trinitrotoluene
(“TNT”) and plastic explosives to detecting the presence
of specific explosive, biological and chemical agents (“BCX”).
-
NanoSensors expects that billions of dollars of
governmental (the Department of Homeland Security and
Foreign Governments) and private sector expenditures will
increase demand for security products and services.
-
Present detection sensors and instruments that are being
used today by the government, military and private sector
provide low sensitivity, take up too much space, have a
high cost and require a high level of supervision. NNSR
addresses those issues with their M10 Sensor product.
-
Sensors based on carbon nano-tubes can improve the
detection of vapors from explosives. Sensors arranged in
arrays will be tuned to respond to the presence of
specific explosives and biological and chemical agents.
-
NanoSensors Inc. is looking to acquire intellectual
property assets, patents, licenses, and source code for
solutions that are still in development, but less than
twelve months away from generating revenue.
Opportunity
Devices created on the nanoscale have the potential to
significantly refine existing applications across diverse
industries, such as computing, materials and manufacturing,
electronics and national security.
The Company believes that the demand for sensors will be
one of the fastest growing industries in the world over the
next few years. NanoSensors expects that billions of dollars
of governmental (the Department of Homeland Security and
Foreign Governments) and private sector expenditures will
increase demand for security products and services.
The President's FY 2004 budget provided $847 million for
the multi-agency National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI), a
9.5% increase over the $774 million in funding for FY '03.
Significant increases are proposed for the Department of
Energy and the National Science Foundation (NSF) budgets for
NNI activities. NSF continues
to have the largest share of U.S. federal nanotechnology
funding. Around 2001, the NSF
projected that the total market for nanotechnology products
and services will reach $1 trillion by 2015.
The global market for applications
for single-wall carbon nano-tubes was less than $10 million
in 2002 and is projected to exceed $200 million in 2007,
according to Business Communications Co., Inc.'s report
titled, "Nanotubes: Directions and Technologies report."
Products
Present detection sensors and instruments that are being
used today by the government, military and private sector
provide low sensitivity, take up too much space, have a
high cost and require a high level of supervision.
M10 Sensor
NanoSensors' first sensor under development is the
Model 10 (“M10”), and it is a portable device (hand-held
wand) that can be used to screen people for explosives as
they enter into public facilities. The Company designed,
engineered and built prototypes of the M10 by integrating
several technologies. The M10 has been through testing
under simulated conditions, and the commercial viability
of this sensor will be determined when it is tested with
live explosives.
Future Sensor Products
The Company will expand from sensing trinitrotoluene
(“TNT”) and plastic explosives to detecting the presence
of specific explosive, biological and chemical agents (“BCX”).
The biological agents of primary interest are Anthrax and
Rican and the chemical agents are Saran gas and Dioxin.
First sensors will be fabricated for individual agents and
then in arrays for multiple agents. Sensors will be
coupled to instruments for electrical and frequency
measurement to monitor type and quantity of agents
present. The Company's line of instruments will expand
from hand-held battery powered to perimeter line powered
and then to line and battery powered wireless Motes.
Mote Data Acquisition Networks
Motes are small autonomous nodes of BCX sensors and
simple computers, one thousands the computing power of a
PDA, that communicate over limited distances of 100 feet.
However, by Motes working in concert, this limited
communications distance is sufficient. A ring of Motes
equipped with sensors can be deployed to encircle and
protect a stationary or possible moving VIP. Wireless Mote
sensor networks can monitor the movement of BCX agents in
a protected area to yield a real time warning on which
actions can be taken.
Porous Silicon Electronic Addressed Arrays
Nanosensors' research indicates that sensors based on
porous silicon will offer enhanced sensitivity, reduced
power demands and lower cost. These sensing arrays are
analogous to the manner in which cellular phone networks
and their towers are set up, except that Nanosensors'
sensing arrays will protect certain defined geographical
areas.
Porous silicon exhibits a large change in electrical
conductivity on exposure to trace amounts of the vapor
characteristic of BCX materials due to the characteristic
large surface area per volume ratio of the material.
Sensitivity to parts per billion or less concentration is
anticipated allowing stand-off detection of explosive.
Carbon Nano-Tubes Frequency Addressed Arrays
The Company's studies have found that carbon nano-tube
technology is promising for chemical and biological
detection. The carbon nano-tube sensors can be built to
facilitate distributed, or wireless, gas sensing, leading
to more efficient multi-point measurements, or greater
convenience and flexibility in performing measurements. In
addition, carbon nano-tube chemical and biological sensors
would be suitable for sensing different species of
interest. Such sensors could be configured in the form of
an array to comprehensively and cost-effectively monitor
multiple species.
Acquisition Strategy
In an effort to move away from being a development stage
organization, as well as to take advantage of opportunities
that are present in the nanotechnology and homeland security
industry; the Company is interested in acquiring and
commercializing technology solutions in sectors that
include: computing, materials and manufacturing, electronics
and national security.
NanoSensors has three strategic components to its
acquisition strategy:
-
IP Acquisition (Post-Revenue): Acquire non-core
intellectual property and tangible assets from
corporations that will be income and balance sheet
accretive.
-
IP Commercialization (Pre-Revenue): Acquire intellectual
property assets, patents, licenses, and source code for
solutions that are still in development, but less than
twelve months away from generating revenue.
-
University & Government R&D: Identify patented or
patent-pending technologies at universities or government
labs and fund additional development of those technologies
in exchange for exclusive rights to commercialize the
resulting prototypes. Leveraging the resources and
infrastructure of these institutions provides the Company
with a highly cost-effective development pipeline.
Letter Of Intent:NanoSensors, Inc. announced DKL
International, Inc. as their first letter of intent to
reinforce their acquisition strategy. DKL International,
Inc. is a supplier of passive detection technology and
related products to the homeland security, defense,
military, law enforcement, security, safety, and rescue
markets. Patented in eighteen countries, DKL International
adds SilentGuard to its initial product, the DKL
International LifeGuard(TM). The LifeGuard(TM) can locate
and track a standing adult at a distance of 500 meters in
the open, and at shorter ranges through concrete walls,
steel bulkheads, brick, earthworks, plastics, heavy foliage,
water, and other barriers. The LifeGuard(TM) is used in Asia
and Europe for port security, mine safety, and by law
enforcement and search and rescue groups. SilentGuard is a
silent and passive electronic tripwire that detects only
living humans. The SilentGuard can be concealed in walls or
doorways or buried underground, and can reduce the false
alarms associated with other sensor systems as part of an
integrated perimeter system for military, security or
medical use. SilentGuard expects to install its first
production systems in the spring of 2007.
