SAN DIEGO, Calif.
In a volatile world, terrorism is a pervasive, ever-present threat. Science, Engineering and Technology (SET) Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) [NYSE: SAI] , has developed CounterBomber®, the first-ever system capable of automatically detecting suicide bombers at safe distances — and Loma Media has completed a suite of communications and training tools to provide vital information to partners, influencers, potential buyers, and operators.
“Simply put, CounterBomber saves lives,” says Janet Dahle, Loma principal and project lead. “It’s an imperative technology, and we are proud to play a key role in demonstrating and ultimately establishing its critical value.”
The SET CounterBomber system employs video cameras to automatically track subjects, and a low-power radar to interrogate them when cued by video. After automatically assessing the threat in real time, CounterBomber supports the response team by wirelessly transmitting pictures or live video of the threat to a remote handheld device.
Loma’s mission began with the production of a video overview that introduced both the technology and the company’s core capabilities. As SET successfully fielded the technology in war zone operational use, Loma’s role expanded to include compelling product demonstration media for delivery platforms, ranging from trade shows to online outreach.
As CounterBomber became well established and precisely positioned, the focus expanded to include computer-based/e-learning and video training for field service representatives and operators.
From visual narrative to instructional design, Loma crafted an integrated portfolio of demonstration and training tools and managed the strategic distribution of these products to military and national security professionals worldwide.
“We’re always proud to see our clients succeed, and in the case of SET’s CounterBomber, we’re especially excited to help communicate its live-saving capabilities to both decision makers and operators,” says John DeBello, Loma’s president and creative director. “It’s an honor to support this effort, since it’s so important to the security and safety of so many people.”
