  1. Company Overview April 2003

  2. Advanced Wireless Automation (“AWA”) was founded in February 2002 to develop and market a break-through technology for use in a $1 billion market for remote security and intelligence gathering applications. Our unique technology includes wireless data transmission combined with an ultra low power platform that covertly captures data based on local stimulus.
