RFID Stock Alert: Interview with CEO of (OTCBB: ECDC) Discussing Patented GPS and RFID Technology

RFID Stock Alert: Q and A with CEO of (OTCBB: ECDC) Discussing Patented GPS and RFID Technology


Investorideas.com RFID stock alert; Q&A interview

July 19, 2011 - www.InvestorIdeas.com, a global investor research portal for sector research including tech stocks and RFID stocks releases an interview with Mr. Kayode Aladesuyi, Chairman and CEO of East Coast Diversified Corporation (OTCBB: ECDC), discussing ECDC’s unique patented GPS and RFID technology.

East Coast Diversified Corporation Interview

Q: Investorideas.com

Mr. Aladesuyi, can you give us insight as to the significance of your recent announcement on $10 Million funding commitment and what that means for the future growth plans for ECDC?


A: Mr. Kayode Aladesuyi, Chairman and CEO of East Coast Diversified Corporation

This is quite a significant event for us. We will now be able to execute our business plan effectively. Our technology is unique, and needed for numerous applications and solutions, and we have spent the last 12 months building a strong global network of distributors and partners. With the funding commitment in place, we can now aggressively promote our product, expand our distribution network, increase manufacturing capacity, and provide credit facility to our partners and distributors as part of our sales strategy. Additionally, we can now increase the resources currently in place to support partners.


Q: Investorideas.com

Mr. Aladesuyi, can you give investors an overview on some ECDC’s flagship products, patents and the current sectors you are focusing on implementing them in?

A: Mr. Kayode Aladesuyi, Chairman and CEO of East Coast Diversified Corporation

EarthSearch’s flagship product is the LogiBoxx, which offers the world’s first wireless communication between GPS and RFID. The ability to have these two completely different technologies communicate wirelessly creates a solution once considered impossible and allows businesses to have greater control over their assets, especially when the assets are in transit.

LogiBoxx allow us to offer not just products, but solutions such as Oil pipeline monitoring, Oil tanker monitoring, field force optimization, real time visibility and monitoring of goods in transit, School transportation and class attendance monitoring.


Q: Investorideas.com

Mr. Aladesuyi, regarding the announcement of your SchoolsConnects pilot being implemented, can you give an overview to investors on how your technology differentiates compared to other school attendance schools and monitoring system technologies?

A: Mr. Kayode Aladesuyi, Chairman and CEO of East Coast Diversified Corporation
EarthSearch SchoolsConnects utilizes our flagship LogiBoxx solution, using wireless communication between GPS/RFID to deliver real time information to parents and schools about student bus riders. SchoolsConnects give parents peace of mind and law enforcement better response time to child kidnapping incidents. The capability for RFID to identify events, communicate it to GPS and have the LogiBoxx take action is unparalleled and without competition in the market. In addition, the real time capability also allows us to provide information to parents about student behavior at school, getting parents more closely involved in student academics, such as students skipping school, skipping class or even going into class late. For years, school administrators have sought to have parents become more actively involved in student’s academics and behavior at school. SchoolsConnects delivers the solution to accomplish this objective. Our system offers direct email communication between parents and teachers.

Q: Investorideas.com

Mr. Aladesuyi, regarding your China relationships can you speak to us more about your June 8th announcement on signing a Letter of Intent with ZST Digital Networks, Inc. and how you see that relationship benefitting the growth of ECDC?


A: Mr. Kayode Aladesuyi, Chairman and CEO of East Coast Diversified Corporation


The Chinese market is the fastest growing market in the world. When you have a country experiencing the kind of growth that we are witnessing in China, along with the growth comes operational issues such as theft, lost cargo, and inefficiencies due to human error. Our technology offers the solution with the greatest value proposition to a growing market such as China. Entering the world's fastest growing market is a significant milestone for us.

ZSTN is in the GPS business with clients already in place with needs for our solution. They are one of the largest service providers in the Henan province, which has more than 100 million people and represents a large market for logistics in China. The LOI calls for a minimum annual purchase commitment of $5 million per year.

About ECDC:
EarthSearch Communications, an ECDC Company (OTCBB:ECDC), is a US-based business whose flagship product, LogiBoxx(TM), integrates GPS and RFID at the hardware level. When combined with its proprietary Global Asset Tracking and Identification System (GATIS) middleware, LogiBoxx and GATIS become the centerpieces of a LogiBoxx Certified Solution.

Q&A Interview with CEO of Visualant, Inc. (OTCBB: VSUL) Discussing Breakthrough Sensor Technology

Point Roberts, WA - July19, 2011 - Investorideas.com, an investor research portal covering multiple stock sectors including defense and security stocks, presents a Q&A interview with Ronald Erickson, CEO of Visualant, Inc. (OTCBB: VSUL).
Mr. Erickson discusses the ability of Visualant's sensor technology, a patent-pending technology that utilizes controlled illumination with specific bands of light, to create a unique spectral signature.
Q: Investorideas.com
Ron, can you explain to investors how yourSpectral Pattern Matching technology works?
A: Ronald Erickson, CEO, President
We map color at the photon level with our proprietary scanner. We use our proprietary algorithms to place that mapping in a database. We then use that information, with our scanner to authenticate or diagnose based upon color.
Q: Investorideas.com
Your primary focus is the security and Homeland Security market, but you continue to expand into new applications and markets. Can you give investors insight as to the new opportunities in front of you and what that represents for the company moving forward?
A: Ronald Erickson, CEO, President
Early this year we licensed Visualant technology to Javelin LLC, a Seattle based technology company, for the limited purpose of focusing upon environmental applications of our Spectral Pattern Matching technology. We believe there are profound applications of our technology in not only the environmental arena, but also in forensic science, medical and agricultural diagnostics as well.
Q: Investorideas.com
One of the applications for the technology, I read on your website, includes the ability to help define and diagnose disease. Can you tell us more about that?
A: Ronald Erickson, CEO, President
To make the point that our technology can play a role in defining and diagnosing disease I often say to people, “Have you ever said, ‘You don't look well.'” When you say that, you are making a judgment based upon visual cues, including color. Disease is not static. Color changes during a disease process. Interestingly, there are 2000 year old Chinese texts that speak of using color as a diagnostic. We believe there are numerous medical diagnostic applications for our SPM technology.
Q: Investorideas.com
How does your technology compare to other competitive technologies in the market?
A: Ronald Erickson, CEO, President
We don't see any directly competitive technology in the marketplace today. Spectrometers are competitive, but they are very expensive and fragile. We believe we have an advantage both in terms of utility and price point and see no direct competitors today.
Q: Investorideas.com
Ron, with all of the multiple applications and uses for your technology, is your roll out plan to still attract partners for each application? And if so, how is that developing?
A: Ronald Erickson, CEO, President
We will focus our efforts on security and authentication applications. In other fields of use such as medical, for example, we will seek out the best partners. We are in discussions with a number of partners in several fields of use. You can expect to see announcements regarding those relationships over time.

Security and Defense stock News; Visualant (OTCBB:VSUL) Issues Shareholder Letter

SEATTLE - July 18, 2011 (Investorideas.com Defense Newswire) - Visualant, Inc. (OTCBB: VSUL), a pioneer provider of industry-leading identification solutions, issued the following shareholder letter:
July 18, 2011
Dear Shareholder:
June 30, 2011 is the close of our third fiscal quarter. I want to take this opportunity to highlight the Company�s several accomplishments over the past quarter.
Visualant closed approximately $1 million in financing. This financing allows us to grow the business both internally and through acquisition.
With funding in place, we completed the acquisition of Visualant related assets from the RATLab LLC. The RATLab LLC is owned by Dr. Tom Furness, co-inventor of the Visualant Spectral Pattern Matching (�SPM�) technology. Visualant secured all rights, title and interest to the SPM technology in the important fields of use of medicine, agriculture and the environment. Additionally, Dr. Furness is now a consultant to the Company and is Visualant�s Senior Scientific Advisor. Also, as part of the RATLab asset acquisition, Dr. Brian Schowengerdt, a co-inventor of the SPM technology, joined the Company as a consultant and will be working on productizing the company�s SPM technology.
During the quarter, the Board of Directors appointed Marco Hegyi as Chairman. Mr. Hegyi, a senior technology executive formerly with Microsoft and Yahoo, is actively focused on bringing products to market which embody and exploit Visualant�s SPM technology. Working with our scientists and Visualant board member Paul R. Bonderson Jr., Mr. Hegyi is driving the rapid deployment of our technology from its current demonstration form to a market ready product that generates revenues.
Our SPM technology maps color at the photon level and with our algorithms, uses that color mapping to authenticate and diagnose. The potential for our SPM technology is so innovative and unique that it has the potential to create new industry standards and applications.
Working with Visualant consultant Lance Gima, former head of the forensic laboratory for the State of California, the Company applied for a significant grant to focus on the applications of the SPM technology in forensic science. Mr. Gima sees application for SPM technology both in crime scene and crime laboratory analytics. While there can be no assurance of success in our grant application, we intend to pursue this and other research and development grants to extend the reach and application of our SPM technology.
Visualant licensee Javelin LLC, as previously announced, is investigating environment applications of SPM technology. They are focused on detecting minute amounts of oil in water and water in aviation fuel among other target markets. Javelin performed a laboratory test where they successfully differentiated between ten vodkas. That was a stunning result which has applicability to their broad environmental diagnostic work with our SPM technology.
The acquisition of TransTech closed on June 8, 2010, and provides Visualant with approximately $10 million in annual revenues. The TransTech acquisition was financed by a three year promissory note. The note is to be paid off over 3 years, in annual installments, the first of which was paid on June 8, 2011. The remaining two payments are due in 2012 and 2013.
In early April of this year TransTech participated in the largest security industry show in the US, the International Security Show and Exposition, in Las Vegas. TransTech�s participation in the show was a great success. In addition to show-casing the various products distributed by TransTech, the Visualant SPM technology was demonstrated to a number of potential partners and end users.
In addition to participating in a number of industry trade shows and events, TransTech was busy expanding the reach and revenue of its business and is pleased to announce the following milestones this past quarter:
  • A distribution agreement with Farpointe for their Access Card Programmer;
  • The incorporation of access card programmer into ID card printers;
  • The introduction of private labeling of ID badge bundles and supply kits for their 300 plus dealer network;
  • The TransCam ID capture solution for rapid and secure ID badge creation;
  • The launch of their BadgePros site at www.badgepros.com to provide technical support and information to their large dealer network; and,
  • Jim Gingo, TransTech President and Visualant Board Member, continues his active involvement on the Executive Committee of the Security Industry Association. Jim currently serves as its Treasurer.
We are working hard on behalf of all of our shareholders. Our future is bright. You will find updated information at the Visualant website at www.visualant.net.
We encourage you to visit our website and sign up to receive information from your Company. Please do not hesitate to be in touch with us if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Ron Erickson
Chief Executive Officer

Defense Stocks Trading for July 6th; KTOS, LMT, RTN, OTCBB: VSUL

Point Roberts, WA - July 7, 2011 � Investorideas.com, an investor research portal covering multiple stock sectors including defense and security stocks, presents a sector close up on defense and security stocks June 6th . The House began debate on July 6th that could potentially increase the defense budget by $17 billion for 2012, but there is a direct message from the President on where he wants defense spending to go.
At a recent town hall meeting, President Obama stated "The nice thing about the defense budget is it's so big, it's so huge, that, you know, a one percent reduction is the equivalent of the education budget."
Some of the smaller companies in the sector including Visualant, Incorporated (OTCBB: VSUL), a company that has developed a light-based security technology, aren’t directly impacted by budget cuts. The technology has applications for anti-counterfeiting, forgery/fraud prevention, brand protection and process control applications, outside of the homeland security sector. It has also licensed its technology for environmental applications.
The company agreed to sell up to $3 million in shares of common stock to venture firm Ascendiant Capital Partners. The stock closed trading at $0.21.
Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc (NASDAQ:KTOS) fell 0.255 to $12.15 after analyst at Kaufman Bros. started a coverage on the stock with a hold rating.
