FEMA Trailer Inspections Tracking CYTEC developed a web-based data collection application that utilizes bar-coding technology to capture data from field locations. The application is tailored to FEMA inspections and maintenance regulations. It allows for remote data collection and gives the ability to print the captured data in a variety form-based reports. The application also has a transmission capability that allows data collected from a hand-held PC to be wirelessly transmitted to a database application. This application creates efficiencies by reducing data collection times, eliminating the need for manual paper forms and duplicate data entry, and providing increased visibility to potential problems and/or trends of data collected against established parameters. The system also uses GPS technology to provide a link to view most collected data in Google Earth allowing the data to be visually inspected and confirmed. |

SensiTEL Water Monitoring System Under a research and development contract, CYTEC has developed a remote monitoring application which is comprised of intelligent nodes capable of supporting up to 8 separate and unique sensors wirelessly connected to a Central Monitoring Center (CMC) that manages each sensor. The system is currently being deployed in Hinds County, Mississippi where it will monitor water quality, mechanical, electrical, and proximity conditions at 10 separate locations. In the water-monitoring configuration, the system product automatically captures water quality samples (pH levels, chlorine levels, tank pressure, etc.) on 15-minute intervals. The intelligent node processes the sensor reading and wirelessly transmits the readings to the CMC. The CMC receives, analyzes, and provides notification alerts when a sensor parameter has been breached. If a parameter is breached, the SensiTEL system is designed to support various downstream alert notifications (ie, emails, pages, telephone calls, etc.). The product can be tailored to meet a wide array of application, from water quality monitoring, to industrial, environmental wastewater and contamination projects, to remote agricultural sensing. |

Federal Government and Military Over the past 25 years, CYTEC has supported the Federal Government and Department of Defense, completing numerous projects for the Army, Navy and Air Force. Our most recent projects have involved cutting edge technology, including Automatic Identification Technology (AIT) and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. CYTEC was instrumental in developing the AIT Engineering Support Center (ESC) concept for the Navy. This center is designed to conduct "proof-of-principle" projects using AIT technologies that can be implemented within the Navy. CYTEC is the lead sub-contractor on all AIT ESC projects. Tasks under the first year AIT ESC concept included:

CYTEC also developed a system for the Navy to utilize Contact Memory Buttons (CMB) to more effectively track and manage inventory and maintenance activities. Working closely with our subcontractor, Oregon State University, CYTEC developed a prototype for a portable cooling system that does not require a source of electricity. This prototype will be applied to applications for the US Army. As a subcontractor on the GeoTRACK Positioning Technology Program, CYTEC supported the research and development efforts associated with the development of sensor capabilities integrated in an inventory tag unit to be attached to canisters in uncontrolled environmental storage. |
