Unrivalled Technology in addition to the potential Trump wall, multibagging is just a matter of time.

When it first crossed our radar we could not believe the rumours – a British company could be in-line to build President Donald Trump's wall between the USA and Mexico. Closer inspection revealed talk of a firm which builds not physical walls, but is an established provider of the kind of border security which would seem like science fiction to most people. It technology – such as its EdgeVis Shield and ThruVis products – can and have been employed by military forces and border controls around the world and there seems little reason to see why they would not indeed offer at least part of a solution to President Trump's 2,000 mile-long problem. We happen to know that tests of the technology – which can detect human movement across entire border areas, deliver imagery and exact locations with near pin-point accuracy – has been tested in Gloucestershire. And although the firm, Digital Barriers, is listed on the AIM market in London, its beating heart is in Gloucestershire, its vice president a former Gloucester schoolboy who has moved back to his roots after a career in the military. "I went to Sir Tommy Rich's School then did an in-service degree in military telecoms communications engineer. I have been with Digital Barriers for a number of years now and have built a team up in Gloucester which is based around the solutions part of the business with responsibility for putting together tests for the group," said Neil Hendry. That group being a company which works seamlessly, but through acquisition is operates around the world and interestingly – with a certain high-profile project in mind – has just taken over an American company. "We won't be discussing, and never have discussed, if we are in talks with US border control authorities, and any other border authorities – as this would be confidential information. Regardless, if we did win a deal, as a listed company we would have to announce the win on the RNS," said a spokesman. Digital Barriers last full-year accounts show a turnover of £21.1m with international revenues increasing by 113 per cent to £15.1m and that aforementioned solution division seeing growth of 53 per cent to £18.2 million. More rapid growth is expected. It was formed in 2009 after now senior board members Tom Black, Zak Doffman and Colin Evans sold a previous business - specialist security consultant Detica – to BAE Systems for £531m in July 2008. Fourteen to fifteen acquisitions later, not to mention USA-based Brimtek Inc, it today operates in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa), from regional offices in London, Nice and Dubai, Asia-Pacific, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul, the Americas and from offices in Ashburn, in the Washington DC Metropolitan – and Gloucester. Rumours are the estimated cost of a 55ft high wall – some have reported £8blln – have prompted the search

A firm believed to be in the mix as a potential to build Donald Trump’s wall has not only revealed itself this week to have Gloucestershire roots – but that it is recruiting. We revealed on Southwestbusiness.co.uk earlier this week that rumours placed the firm Digital Barriers in the mix when it came to President Trump’s much mooted wall between the USA and Mexico. While the business has neither confirmed nor denied the reports that its digital and technological skills honed for contracts with the likes of the MOD and other border agencies are under scrutiny by Trump’s team, it highlighted strong Gloucestershire connections for the AIM-listed public company. It has now also revealed it has ambitious growth plans for the year ahead after a period of concerted acquisition - and that it is looking to recruit young talent. “We have just started a graduate scheme. We took on two graduates – in Gloucestershire – six months back. We are likely to develop the scheme business-wide as we grow,” said Neil Hendry, a former Sir Thomas Rich’s School pupil and army captain and now the firm’s vice president who runs the Gloucestershire-branch of the business. “This year is about growth. We have positioned ourselves as able to create solutions from our technology. We see that as exponential growth.” As for Trump’s wall, as you may have guessed Digital Barriers is not linked to a physical wall. But its technology – such as its EdgeVis Shield and ThruVis products – can and have been employed by military forces and border controls around the world and there seems little reason to see why it would not offer at least part of a solution to the President's 2,000 mile-long headache. We happen to know that tests of the technology – which can detect human movement across entire border areas, deliver imagery and exact locations with near pin-point accuracy – have been carried out in Gloucestershire. It is understood its EdgeVis Shield technology has been trialled in American border state Arizona. The screw-shaped Unattended Ground Sensor (UGS) is buried but processes seismic technology so advanced it can differentiate between small animals, vehicles and humans as well as tunnelling activity. Its ThruVis technology is a highly sensitive camera (as used by US Transport Security Administration) which works like an x-ray machine, but can detect non-metallic objects such as explosives. Digital Barriers last full-year accounts show a turnover of £21.1m with international revenues increasing by 113 per cent to £15.1m and that aforementioned solution division seeing growth of 53 per cent to £18.2 million. It was formed in 2009 after now senior board members Tom Black, Zak Doffman and Colin Evans sold a previous business - specialist security consultant Detica – to BAE Systems for £531m in July 2008.

Is it a pre news shake? Drop is on low volume, no change to main share holdings. Recent articles in the news.

From land technology to maritime, interesting trials possibly on cruise ships. Streaming video. With cruise ships having a wide array of video surveillance cameras on board, should an incident happen, the question arises of how to stream the resulting ‘live’ and usable footage to those on shore or to other ships who may be looking to organise a response. Marie Clutterbuck, Marketing Director, at Digital Barriers flags up the fact that at sea most communication from passenger cruise ships takes place over Satcom systems which are not only expensive but have limited bandwidth: “It can be challenging to transmit bandwidth-hungry live video, should the need arise.” Clutterbuck goes on to say that Digital Barriers has held discussions with leading cruise operators and port authorities with a view to having a full trial of the vendor’s EdgeVis Live technology up and running next year: “EdgeVis Live technology makes obtaining video feeds from vessels at sea both viable and cost effective. It uses around 60 percent less data than standard video transmission technology and continues to work at bandwidths as low as 9kbps.” http://www.securitynewsdesk.com/are-terrorists-like-isis-and-pirates-threatening-cruise-ship-security/

Unless its a new Institutional Investor

good to see he is munching away.

chunky buys again, picked up a few more today myself

When this goes it will be out of control, there are hardly any shares available. Its probably held back for one of those II's to load up.

pmsl, are you still on the sidelines mate? You got me with that one.

Hold onto them there shares! lol ;)

So there is less than 18% of the shares in issue available on the open market and Trump has said he wants that wall as of yesterday, as mentioned earlier by Beamer Kelly, 66, told lawmakers at his hearing last week that he supports Mr. Trump’s idea of a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico, but also stressed that the use of manpower and technology are needed to improve border security. In addition Mozax's post 'On the US/Mexico Border Shows me that there is about 900 miles that have ' natural obstacles nearly impossible to build on'. I think the biggest problem a few here will face is selling too soon, them there American Hedge Firms and Traders will probably be researching as we speak of potential undervalued long lost and ignored companies that can fill void of the American - Mexico Border. Very interesting times ahead. ;)

Erm how does one compete when they simply do not have the technology in the first place to bid let alone fill orders lol. Persimmon UNRIVALED Technology, YES thats right UNRIVALLED!

Erm, who got that there very very big hoover out? ;)

Airport security has grown to encompass more than crude metal detectors and pat downs. Digital Barriers is working with airports worldwide on a new form of safety. Security is everywhere in an airport. Passengers rightly assume – and understand why – it will take time to pass through each checkpoint. As technology is increasingly used by those who wish to cause harm or engage in smuggling, it falls on airports and governments to consider how they can better protect the public in uncertain times. This means that security needs to evolve to meet the demands of a new world and the threats that exist in the 21st century. “The key in airports is speeding up the throughput but not compromising security,” says Kevin Gramer, vice president of commercial sales at Digital Barriers, a company that specialises in creating new technology for the global surveillance, security and safety markets. “Airports have a significant challenge,” he continues. “They have to be right 100% of time, whereas the adversaries, the bad guys, only have to be right once.” It’s a sobering thought. So how can technology help the good guys stay one step ahead? Gary Peters: There is considerable concern when it comes to global security and the threat of terrorism. How important is technology in protecting people within the airport environment? Kevin Gramer: I think it's a tool; no one can really replace the human element, but the tools, the technology, can enhance the capabilities. Given the state of where we are now and the changing threat... [it is about] evolving to meet and adapt to the threat. I think ten years ago, our technology probably wouldn't be thought of, but today as the threat evolves, we need to stay with it, or ahead of it. GP: But will the more traditional means of detection remain for the foreseeable future? KG: In my opinion, yes. Technology can increase the layers of security and push the threat further away. The key in airports is speeding up the throughput but not compromising security. GP: Digital Barriers has developed ThruVis, a passive people-screening camera. Can you explain how this works? KG: Let’s look at this from a layman's point of view. People often confuse us with technology that radiates energy. When you go into an airport, you're used to passing through a big machine that scans you. They are ‘active’, with some level of radiating technology. Ours uses terahertz millimetre technology to look at the energy that is being emitted from your body, so we can detect things that a metal detector cannot. Obviously it can detect metal, but also liquids and weapons. We can see that even under multiple layers of clothing. We're not using any radiation, merely measuring the energy and things that are blocking that energy from the body. There are other parts of this, too, including employee screening, which is something we're seeing a lot of interest

Have we a buyer with his hoover out>? ;) Wouldn't want to be on the sidelines if another contract win RNS lands.
