o DIRCM paradigm is “jamming” o numerous seconds to engage o can’t handle simultaneous missiles without costly and impractical multiplexing o dead end technology – Imaging Infrared(IIR) InfraRed Power Technology DIRCM – Directed Infrared Countermeasure DIRECM™ Directed Infrared Extreme Countermeasure Focus on jamming hinders progress The aim is to destroy the sensors, not simply fool them - there must be ‘dire’ consequences for the missile’s IR system - an end to the ongoing countermeasure/counter-countermeasure cycle
InfraRed Power Technology Our technology Tested against various, then current (1995), scanning surface-to-air and air-to-air IR homing system missiles and proved effective in causing catastrophic sensor damage in all cases. Among these, the SA13 Gopher, the Kentron V3B and the Matra Magic. o Proven, eye safe spectral technique against IR homing head sensors and critical optical elements o Almost instantaneous technical kill o Effective against Scanning & IIR o Master threat suppression option Problem: A chemical laser
o needed: alternative to chemical laser o solution: solid state, gas chemical hybrid InfraRed Power Technology Patent pending Energy Provision o Status– Extensive theoretical and laboratory testing provides very high confidence
o 2-1/2 year demonstrator phase requires approximately $5 million InfraRed Power Technology o B.O.M. accounts for approximately $1 million in the first 4 months o Commercialization stage: – approximately $20 million over 2 year Investment for Technology Demonstrator o Risk Reward Ratio attractive considering market potential & current competition
InfraRed Power Technology Company o Current: Neil Campbell Ph.D. Jack Lovell o Add a co-founder/business developer With significant dealings with military/DHS – active in the missile space Phase 1 Staffing: Founders + 7 employees o Partnership with the military, DHS or a prime contractor
InfraRed Power Technology Risk-Reward o The kicker: not a one trick pony!– Existing IIR + thermal guidance & targeting systems Significantly improves the already favorable Risk Reward Ratio – Basis for anti-RPG, compact HEL weapons and Remote Chem-Bio detection
InfraRed Power Technology DIRECM™ Directed Infrared Extreme Countermeasure Rapid Hard Kill of Infrared Sensors Defends Against Scanning and Imaging Threats Effective Against All Infrared Missile Modes (air-to-air etc.) Breaks the Countermeasure/Counter-Countermeasure Cycle Counteracts Thermal Guidance & Targeting Systems (UAVs etc.) Jack LovelljackL@IRPtechnology.com760-208-4760 Press Esc to exit
