Stonewater Partners With Raytheon And Sandia National Laboratories To Create Next Generation Of Perimeter Protection Technology

Stonewater is pleased to announce a partnership with Raytheon and Sandia National Laboratories to advance the state of the art in perimeter protection systems. Recent innovations in artificial intelligence, data fusion, and systems of systems integration are revolutionizing the way many industries operate. Over the past several years research in machine learning has produced algorithms that rival the performance of human experts in fields like image analysis, signal processing, and language translation. These advances have created an opportunity to improve the performance and reduce the cost of perimeter protection systems by an order of magnitude. Performance and cost improvements will also allow us to protect perimeters that until now have been notoriously difficult to secure, such as shallow-water intertidal boundaries. ... more

Sandia National Laboratory Announces Technical SAND Report on The ReKon Intelligent Perimeter Protection System

Sandia National Laboratory has released the final technical report on a new perimeter security solution developed in partnership with Stonewater Control Systems and its parent company, Kontek Industries. The ReKon™ System integrates artificial intelligence techniques with a robust physical barrier to provide improved detection with assessment and access delay. ReKon allows integration of any type of sensor input from simple contact switch to video to rich XML data stream, and provides configurable data security options to meet the needs of a variety of sites. The software and networking architecture are modular and scalable, to allow implementation on a wide range of sites. The ReKon allows high-level detection performance without requiring a full PIDAS installation through the use of multiple sensor types and innovative data fusion techniques that effectively manage the drawbacks faced by traditional sensor fusion methods.... more
