Exhibition For Soldier System Decision Makers: Demonstrate Situational Awareness & Soldier Protection Capability

AuTx

AuTx is the biggest success story in weight reduction for dismounted soldiers in NATO Partner & Member countries for 40+years. There has not been such a mass reduction since polyamide (Nylon) was replaced by copolyaramids (Kevlar, Twaron, etc) in the 70’s. AuTx is a sopolyaramid that has a dynamic strength twice that of copolyaramids. When combined with the benefits of its fiber thinness, AuTx enables the mass of protective apparel and load carrying equipment being carried by dismounted soldiers / war fighters to be reduced by up to 50%. AuTx is an advanced aramid fiber co-developed by Alchemie and Kamenskvolokno.

Alchemie

Alchemie was founded in 2000. The business focuses on developing and commercializing Russian technology, specifically high strength materials that are stronger then those available outside Russia. This includes aramid polymers, carbon fibers, multi component ceramics, glass, titanium and aluminum. Through its Advanced Protection Technologies division, Alchemie improves safety whilst reducing the mass carried by military and law enforcement personnel. In addition to the AuTx fiber development, Alchemie has proprietary intellectual property that greatly increases fragment and hard cored bullet resistance of its AuTx armor systems through weaving, textile treatments and composites.

Kamenskvolokno

Kamenskvolokno was founded in the 1940’s to produce advanced fibers. In the 1970’s they started commercial production of aramid polymer based fibers and in the 1990’s put into production a family of “next generation” advanced aramids, sopolyaramids. In the last ten years this family of sopolyaramids was differentiated with fibers being produced for specific applications, including: high dynamic strength ones for resisting fragments and bullets together with high modulus fibers for structural composites.

Equivital™ personal devices, in combination with PC, mobile or web based software applications and services can provide data in its rawest form for the user who wants to validate everything themselves e.g. Heart rate and respiration waveforms and specific body and core temperature measures.

At the other end of the spectrum, our multi-system intelligent devices fuse and contextualise data to provide useful or actionable information in the form of derived measures such as Indexes.

Our aim is that our devices and software give the ability for this data to be as easily used and understood by everyday consumers as by scientists and trained clinicians. Our devices allow real time data transmission or retrospective data download.

Everything that we design to be body worn is built on a "wear and forget" principle. Availability of this data is driving the development of intelligence and content by increasing our understanding of human body function and cause and effect behaviours of real people in real environments.
