KWESST $KWE.ca Electronic Decoy Patent Receives Notice of Allowance from U.S. Patent Office $WRTC $BYRN.ca $PAT.ca $POWW

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:28 PM on Monday, October 5th, 2020

Announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office has issued a Notice of Allowance for the Company’s patent application covering its PhantomTM electronic battlefield decoy
Notice of Allowance from the USPTO covers fifteen patent claims for a programmable multi-waveform radio frequency generator capable of broadcasting and emulating all relevant military waveforms to create electronic battlefield decoys that deceive adversaries regarding the location of NATO friendly forces

Ottawa, Ontario–(October 5, 2020) – KWESST Micro Systems Inc. (TSXV: KWE) (“KWESST” or “the Company”) today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) has issued a Notice of Allowance for the Company’s patent application covering its PhantomTM electronic battlefield decoy.

“This marks an important addition to KWESST’s technology portfolio,” said Jeff MacLeod, President and CEO, who added that, “The allowed claims cover both the miniaturized device itself and methods of deploying it, which we believe constitute significant protection of the invention.”

KWESST’s PhantomTM system addresses the latest requirements for miniaturized electronic decoys that can be easily deployed by soldiers or drones in contested areas of operation to prevent adversaries from accurately locating NATO forces. “Owning the patent that protects both the technology and the method of deployment gives KWESST a distinct advantage in a vast emerging market of next-generation electronic countermeasures,” said the Company.

The Notice of Allowance from the USPTO covers fifteen patent claims for a programmable multi-waveform radio frequency generator capable of broadcasting and emulating all relevant military waveforms to create electronic battlefield decoys that deceive adversaries regarding the location of NATO friendly forces.

The Company added that it is filing additional claims by way of a “Continuance” to expand the scope of its patent even further.

VIDEO – Soldier Launched Micro Drones, Electronic Soldier Decoys and a $93,000,000 Pipeline – Meet Brand New Listing KWESST Micro Systems $KWE.ca $WRTC $BYRN.ca $PAT.ca $POWW

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:17 AM on Thursday, October 1st, 2020

If you haven’t heard of KWESST Micro Systems (KWE:TSXV) you’re not alone because the Company just listed for trading a couple of weeks ago – and it is probably the coolest new listing of 2020 if you love high-tech, covert defense systems that we only get to see in Tom Cruise movies.

KWESST is a leader in “soldier systems” which are technologies that increase the capabilities of soldiers, Let’s be clear right off the start, KWESST doesn’t sell weaponry. Rather, it sells technologies that make a big difference to the safety and effectiveness of soldiers.

For example, out in a field of combat, soldiers emit Electro Magnetic (EM) signatures that make them detectable by enemy combatants. KWESST has a battlefield decoy system that creates multiple false phantom signatures to spoof adversaries. This picture is worth 1,000 words.

We could go on about many other such technologies created by KWESST but this is AGORACOM after all and we want to get down to the business of KWESST, the highlights of which are as follows:

A developer of next-generation systems for forces around the world, including those of NATO and its allies
A leadership team whose experience spans decades and hundreds of millions of dollars in military and homeland security contracts
A sales and distribution network of agents that spans the globe
Partnerships with globally recognized OEM’s, including Samsung
A sales pipeline that stands at $93,000,000 (not a typo) as of August 2020
Already generating revenues in 2020

And last but not least, a secret weapon in its Executive Chairman David Luxton, whose companies under his leadership have generated over $1,000,000,000 (Yes, BILLION).

The soldier systems market is projected to hit $14.5 Billion by 2023 and, up until now, small cap investors have never had a company to participate in this lucrative (and SUPER COOL) market.

Now you do. Meet KWESST Micro Systems. Watch this first ever interview with David Luxton himself to learn about where KWESST is going.

Confirmed the formalization of patent pending status of an invention which improves the accuracy of military weapons systems, utilizing a novel micro-optical and computer vision technology, branded “Polaris”
Polaris works with digital aiming systems for military weapons including the KWESST’s flagship Tactical And Situational Control System (TASCS) and its Integrated Fires Module (IFM) to achieve the kind of accuracy normally obtainable only with expensive “smart” weapons systems.
TASCS IFM and its Polaris enhancement are comprised of an app and simple snap-on device that turns traditional “dumb” weapons into “smart” weapons, without any modification to the weapons or ammunition

Ottawa, Ontario–(September 24, 2020) – KWESST Micro Systems Inc. (TSXV: KWE) (“KWESST” or “the Company”) today confirmed the formalization of patent pending status of an invention which improves the accuracy of military weapons systems, utilizing a novel micro-optical and computer vision technology, branded “Polaris”.

Polaris works with digital aiming systems for military weapons including the KWESST’s flagship Tactical And Situational Control System (TASCS) and its Integrated Fires Module (IFM) to achieve the kind of accuracy normally obtainable only with expensive “smart” weapons systems. TASCS IFM and its Polaris enhancement are comprised of an app and simple snap-on device that turns traditional “dumb” weapons into “smart” weapons, without any modification to the weapons or ammunition.

KWESST President and CEO, Jeff MacLeod, commented that, “Polaris is an important enhancement to KWESST’s TASCS and IFM system, which we believe will make this whole technology set even more compelling for military customers as they seek to improve the precision and utility of existing weapons systems.” He added: “While developed to work with our TASCS IFM module, Polaris could be implemented on non-competing fire control systems sold by other manufacturers.”

As well, Polaris and TASCS IFM enhance safety since weapon system commanders receive an accurate visual indication of the point of impact, allowing them to monitor projected impact points and quickly adjust aiming for greater precision.

The TASCS and Polaris suite integrate seamlessly into Battlefield Management Applications (BMA), the software systems used by NATO and NATO allies’ militaries to disseminate information, plan operations, and provide general operational awareness.

Current military digital aiming systems for weapons can suffer from inaccuracy due to fluctuations in inertial navigation, GPS, and digital magnetic compass bearings, particularly when weapons are stationary for long periods of time. Polaris overcomes these inherent inaccuracies through digital aiming that is not affected by magnetic fields, shock or recoil, or “drift” in location bearings over time.

The key benefits of Polaris for military users include:

Faster time on target;
Improved first round effects and accuracy; and
Reduction in the number of rounds required to neutralize a target.

Improved accuracy and first round effects also mean a reduction in potential collateral damage.

Ottawa, Ontario–(September 22, 2020) – KWESST Micro Systems Inc.

AWS streams Full Motion Video (“FMV”) from an overhead Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (“UAV” or “drone”) manufactured by AeroVironment into the TASCS architecture for the purpose of target identification, accurate first-shot hits and real-time Battle Damage Assessment (“BDA”). The AWS system has been an ongoing collaboration between KWESST and AeroVironment.

“These important military exercises demonstrate the maturity of the TASCS system,” said KWESST CEO Jeff MacLeod. “We are very pleased at the performance of the system and the valuable user feedback. We expect the next two contracted demonstration exercises later this year to attract added customer attention and the development of operating procedures that will be employed in more extensive exercises expected in early 2021.”

David Luxton, Executive Chairman, added, “Demonstration exercises like this with military customers are an important phase in the process towards potential introduction into service.
