Sciax Announces Sale to U.S. Military


BAY CITY, Mich. and TORONTO, Oct. 4, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Sciax Corp. (Pink Sheets:SCXC) reported today that a U.S. military customer has placed a strategically significant evaluation order for a confidential defense product developed by Sciax R&D partner Eomax Corp.

"Sciax in partnership with Eomax have worked for several years on the development of this electro-optical system and we are very pleased to place this initial evaluation unit," stated Ralph Manore, Vice-President of Operations for Sciax.

"The process of creating unique technology solutions for use in challenging military environments is a major undertaking," stated Ken Smart, President of Eomax. "The process of implementing these unique technology solutions into the war-fighting capabilities of any military force is, in many ways, an even bigger undertaking. This sale is a door-opener for the Sciax - Eomax partnership and we are confident that our technology can and will make a real difference for these military users."

In addition to the Wolf Pack system, manufactured by Sciax under license from Eomax, the companies continue to work on several other projects. These projects include confidential efforts as well as publicly disclosed initiatives such as implementations of 3D imaging technology from Spatial View Inc. and continuing work with Richard Wolf GmbH.

The Sciax Wolf Pack is a highly modularized opto-electronic remote viewing system used by law enforcement and military personnel. The reconfigurable, multi-operational design of Wolf Pack makes the system ideal for many applications in physical security, drug and contraband interdiction, tactical response and protective security. Wolf Pack electronics and optical components are built to high standards of durability, allowing successful deployment in harsh conditions that would prohibit the use of many conventional imaging systems.
