Guardian Technologies Announces Successful Completion of Milestone Test to Accelerate Commercialization in Major Russian Markets
Communiqué publié le 27/06/2007 à 22h01

Guardian Technologies International, Inc. (OTCBB:GDTI), innovators of groundbreaking threat detection technology with critical and immediate applications for the homeland security and healthcare markets, has announced the successful completion of an extensive laboratory study by an accredited Russian laboratory. The study represents a milestone event as the Company gears up to commercialize its PinPoint(TM) threat detection product at airport security checkpoints and other key government facilities. The accredited Russian laboratory can now provide a full report to the Russia Federation representing the final step in the certification process.

The successful study paves the way for the Company to begin generating revenues in major Russian markets from its advanced threat detection technology, with major European and U.S. markets expected to follow.

"We are very pleased to announce that we have taken a milestone step towards commercializing our PinPoint technology in Russia," said Michael Trudnak, Chief Executive Officer of Guardian Technologies International. "We believe that the successful implementation of PinPoint in Russia will serve as a model for deployment in other potentially lucrative markets around the world."

Guardian Technologies, through its Russian agents and partners, has accelerated business development activities to market the advantages of PinPoint throughout Russia and is receiving great acceptance for multiple market applications. Not only will PinPoint be used for aviation security but also for facility security applications. Upon certification by the Russia Federation, PinPoint will be immediately available for commercial deployment throughout Russia.

The Russian marketplace represents an immediately addressable opportunity in excess of a $50 million, the second largest market for Guardian and will be the first market in the world to deploy the threat detection capabilities of PinPoint. Many of the 74 Russian airports are undergoing modernization and expansion activities to handle the increased domestic and international passenger traffic which ranges from a 10% to 20% increase per annum.

Using Guardian Technologies' proprietary "intelligent imaging informatics" (3iTM) process, PinPoint analyzes scanned images to identify threat items that may be invisible to the human eye. The software is accurate in detecting specific substances, which can enhance the effectiveness of existing scanning machines at airports, public buildings and other areas where security screening occurs.

Guardian's platform and product suite is protected by a robust patent portfolio. The Company is developing new technologies and plans to acquire complimentary technologies to accelerate their high-growth business model.

About Guardian Technologies International

The impact of Guardian's industry-first computer aided detection technologies are immediate and profound for helping to eliminate human error in both the Homeland Security and the Medical Industry sectors. The Company's software solutions can be seamlessly installed to compliment existing imaging devices, such as baggage scanners and medical MRI, to scan the contents of any image and immediately identify items of interest not easily discernable by the human eye.

-- Airport Security: Guardian's technology compliments and enhances current-generation baggage x-ray scanners with the ability to automatically and effectively detect, locate, and identify explosives and other types of threats.

-- Disease Identification: Existing medical imaging devices used in Computer Aided Detection (CAD) are further improved with Guardian's auto-diagnostic ability to detect anomalous tissue (e.g., tumors) and other potential disease states or conditions.

-- Technology-Independence: Because Guardian's technologies utilize and process the actual image output generated by the original imaging systems, virtually any existing or future imaging device can be upgraded with Guardian's products, delivering an instant, multi-billion dollar potential customer base with no competition.

Guardian's technology and product development partnerships include a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRDA) with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security- Science and Technology Directorate. The Company's platform and product suite is protected by a robust patent portfolio. They are also ramping up new technologies and plan to acquire complimentary technologies to accelerate the Company's high-growth business model.
