WESTMINSTER, Colo., June 13, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- World Am, Inc. (OTCBB:WDAM), whose wholly owned subsidiary, Isotec, Inc., conceives, develops and markets state-of-the-art security systems, announces execution of a definitive agreement for the acquisition of Senz-It, Inc. The transaction will be accomplished by a share exchange agreement.
Senz-It, Inc. holds the rights to develop and commercially market patent protected innovations developed by the State University of New York at Buffalo. SUNY Buffalo has already patented two major area patents related to sensor technology and has a total of 12 pending, provisional and/or follow on patents that cover these innovations.
Senz-It envisions products that will enable an entirely new approach to sensing, process monitoring, homeland security and environmental scanning applications. The technology is significantly less expensive, less intrusive, more compact and more economical in terms of capital outlay and operations than current approaches. This company's products are an example of the rapidly developing field of "electronic noses" in which combinations of individual sensors, joined to sophisticated computer analyses, can identify patterns of molecules present in air or liquid environments. The technology exceeds the capacities of single-purpose sensors. These are smart technologies that can "learn" and become more accurate in their operating environment.
Senz-It initially plans to concentrate on developing sensor applications for three vertical markets: Homeland Security, Indoor Air Quality and Food Processing.
World Am CEO James H. Alexander said, "We know this has been a long time in coming, and want to express our appreciation to all those who have worked so hard for this first step on the road to helping World Am realize the potential we all know exists."
As part of the transaction, World Am will employ Select University Technologies as a venture acceleration manager. More information will be made available about the new venture in the near future.
