HUNTSVILLE, Ala., Sept. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- SCI
Technology, Inc., a Sanmina company (NASDAQ:SANM), today announced
that its AeroGuard™ CUAS (Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems)
product has been named the 2018 Drone Security New Product of the
Year by Security Today magazine. The AeroGuard™ team will be
recognized with an award at the ASIS Global Security Exchange (GSX)
trade show this month in Las
Vegas. AeroGuard™ will also be highlighted in the
November/December 2018 issue of
Security Today and on their website, SecurityToday.com.
The Security Today New Product of the Year Award honors
outstanding product development achievements by security equipment
manufacturers whose products are considered to be particularly
noteworthy in their ability to improve security. More than 100
entries were received in the 10th year of this independently juried
contest.
"SCI is extremely proud to see AeroGuard™ recognized by a
publication as prestigious as Security Today," said
Mike Underwood, president of SCI.
"Solutions that effectively serve the Counter Drone market are
becoming increasingly important. SCI's achievements and deep
expertise with aircraft and defense technology have resulted in
real innovation in AeroGuard's design."
AeroGuard™ is SCI Technology's fully autonomous, rapid-response
drone interdiction system that captures, tows, and disposes of any
unauthorized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) described under FAA Part
107 regulations. UAVs are emerging as an unpredictable and
potentially harmful threat to people and property. To date,
ground based defense and security systems have not proven effective
in deterring or interdicting weaponized UAVs. AeroGuard™ was
designed specifically to safely capture a range of UAV's and has
demonstrated its effectiveness in several tests.
"This is the 10th year that we have sponsored the New Product of
the Year contest, and each year I am amazed at not only the quality
of the products but the intuitive nature behind the development of
the products," said Ralph C. Jensen,
editor-in-chief and content director of Security Today.
"There is real genius behind the products that have been entered,
and I'm pleased that we can help bring this new technology to the
forefront of the security industry."
