Founded in 1980, this company began as a consulting and product development company focusing on serving commercial and industrial customers in need of advanced technology, product development and implementation. In 1995 the company started to pivot to developing and manufacturing its own product line, eventually bringing all manufacturing capabilities in-house. During this time, the firm developed an extensive modular building block of products that have been adapted to various man machine interface systems and sensors. One product developed was sold to a large manufacturing company. The proceeds from that sale were used to develop the current technology and product line and move the company into the military, sub-sea & space, mining, oil & gas, medical & industrial and heavy industrial sectors.
Competitive Overview: Both the sensor technology and the man-machine interface technology and controller that have been developed are unique in the industry. The sensor technology utilized both in the man-machine-interface products and sensor products was specifically developed by the company with proprietary manufacturing processes that are unique in the industry. Additionally, the company is the only company in the military space that has a motorized vehicle control and a mounted-dismounted configuration package that was presented to the government and used by the government to develop the manned-unmanned next generation vehicle control requirements. The Universal Operator Control Unit has very limited competition in the robotic space and is uniquely positioned due to its cost, capabilities, and features. This is the only company in the world that has a fully developed and fielded submersible input device product family that includes fully submersible explosion proof joysticks, mice and robotic controls, sensors and miniature switches, man-machine interfaces and position and force sensors.

Potential Growth: The company is working on over 20 named programs within Medical & Industrial, Sub- Sea & Space, Military, and Mining, Oil & Gas industries with a forecast of over $90M in revenues with estimated projection of profit more than $40M in gross profit.
