Key Products & Projects

Airport Security Systems

AuGRID’s team has conceived and developed a security program to provide increased security at airports. The airport security system includes low-cost Radio Frequency Identification (RDIF) technologies and a proprietary hardware/software program that allows people and baggage to be tracked throughout the airport. The system allows key personnel to be notified in a timely manner to interdict and maintain security. Expansion of the program includes tagging, tracking, and communications involving passengers and packages from curbside check-in to airborne flights.

Codestar Corporation, a subsidiary of AuGRID Corporation, is responsible for the ongoing development and marketing of these high-tech airport security systems.


Advanced Display Technology

The Company designs, manufactures, and distributes a new generation of Audio & Video devices for multiple markets, including high-end home theaters, interior architectural designs, specialty motor coaches, and high-end marine craft. The Company’s OptiPure LLC subsidiary promises products that deliver " pure sound, pure vision™” including optimal performance Liquid Crystal and Plasma Displays, ranging from 17-inch to 50-inch diagonal viewing size.

The Company is recognized as a leader in Field Emission Display (FED) research, which holds commercial promise for a new type of flat panel display. FED technology uses electron emitters in a grid, with individual emitters controlled by “cold” cathodes to generate colored light. FED technology produces thinner panels with higher image quality, wider field of view, and lower energy requirements.


Plasma Glass Front Plate Coating

The Company has applied for two patents for plasma glass technology. The Company’s U.S. Patent Application #10/465729 and International Patent Application #PCT/US2003/019479 cover proprietary plasma glass coating technology and the process of applying it to the front plate of the panel. These patent-pending innovations reduce ultraviolet and infrared light emissions, achieve better color balance, and significantly reduce fixed-image burn-in problems.


Advanced Industrial Measurement Devices

Alysium Corporation, a subsidiary of AuGRID Corporation, is a leading manufacturer of advanced industrial control devices, like the thermocouple (shown here). Thermocouples are high-accuracy thermometers that are used in industry to maintain manufacturing conditions. Alysium uses nanotechnology to develop materials, as well as trade secret manufacturing techniques to provide competitive products at affordable prices to multiple industries.


Armor Plates

The Company has developed a unique application of nanotechnology that involves material science and coating technologies. As a result, armor coatings can be applied that someday may provide added protection to the fighting forces of the United States and to the militaries of friendly nations. The Company is continuing to develop and test these technologies, addressing issues of patentability, and moving toward commercialization.



Market Opportunity: LCD and Plasma Televisions

According to research by Freedonia Group, the US market for electronic displays is $11.6 billion and will grow 12.4 percent annually through 2008. The best growth will remain in flat panel displays as they continue to use cathode ray tubes (CRTs) in desktop computer monitors and television screens. Thin-film transistor liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs) will remain dominant, especially in high-definition TVs.

According to TFCinfo Corp, the Plasma Display Panel (PDP) market in the U.S. in 2003 represented approx. 25% of the world market, with North America lagging behind Europe and Asia in PDP purchases.

The Company is interested in the niche mobile markets of luxury Recreational Vehicles (RVs) and other specialty motor coaches, as well as the high-end of the marine market.

Specialty motor coaches include buses converted to high-end RVs costing at least $1,000,000 and typically much more. Other specialty motor coaches involve bus conversions for use as mobile deluxe offices, traveling museums, command centers, etc. The robustness of the specialty motor coach market reflects trends in the larger RV market universe. RV travel and sales have increased substantially since September 11, 2001. Currently, a record 7.2 million RVs are on the roads in the United States, representing nearly 7 million U.S. households. There are as many as 30 million RV enthusiasts, including renters, nationwide, according to Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) estimates. Long-term signs point to substantial RV market growth because of favorable demographic trends. The number of RV-owning households is projected to increase 15% between 2001 to 2010, to nearly 8 million.

The high end of the RV market is the custom production of luxury motor coaches. One of the largest companies that convert buses into million-dollar-plus RVs is Marathon Coach, Inc. in Oregon. As a sign of the strength of this niche market, Marathon recently announced that it is expanding its workforce from 350 employees to 450 employees to keep up with demand. Marathon’s customized bus-conversions and high-end RV makeovers typically involve several state-of-the-art plasma TVs per luxury vehicle.

According to the National Marine Manufacturers Association, 72 million Americans participated in boating last year, with 17.49 million boats afloat and total boating-related expenditures approaching $30 billion. From 2000 to 2003, the average annual growth in total U.S. boating expenditures was 8.9% per year. In 2003, the boating accessory aftermarket in the U.S. was $2.123 billion, an increase of 4.7% over the previous year. The boating accessory aftermarket, including advanced TVs, is strong.

Another market of interest to the Company is the high-end home theater market. In spite of the somewhat sluggish economy, U.S. consumers bought three times as many advanced TVs in 2003 ($4.3 billion) as in 2002 ($1.7 billion), which was almost triple the number purchased in 2001 ($0.6 billion).

In summary, the thin-film LCD and plasma display markets are experiencing significant growth, as are the Company’s market niches of interest: home theaters, luxury motor coaches, and the high-end marine aftermarket.

Market Opportunity: Nanotechnology

According to research published by Freedonia Group, Inc. (a Cleveland-based industrial market research firm), demand in the U.S. for nanomaterials will reach $35 billion in 2020, representing 33% annual growth.

The development of nanoscale materials (defined as substances with particle size between 1 and 100 nanometers) represents a key step in the eventual production of more sophisticated nanomachines, nanoelectronics etc.

The trend toward nanotechnology is a continuation of ongoing miniaturization efforts in multiple industries. Major trends include the reduction of the size of existing manufacturing materials such as metal oxides through the use of new production technologies, and the development of new nanoscale materials such as nanotubes and buckyballs.


Table 1. Projected U.S. Demand for Nanomaterials, in Millions of Dollars
Source: “Nanomaterials,” a study by The Freedonia Group, Inc.

Type of Nanomaterials 2002 2007 2020 % Annual Growth
2002-2020
All Nanomaterials $200 $1,100 $4,500 33%
Minerals 140 675 2,100 28%
Metals 45 150 500 26%
Polymers and Chemicals 5 175 1,400 56%
New Nanomaterials 10 100 500 41%

Early growth in the U.S. market for nanomaterials is projected to come from numerous niche applications that span the entire U.S. manufacturing sector. These include wafer polishing abrasives and high-density data storage media for the electronics industry; improved diagnostic aids for the medical community; transparent sunscreens, stain-resistant pants and wear-resistant flooring for consumers; cost-cutting equipment coatings for the defense industry; fuel-saving components for the auto industry; and better paper and ink for the printing industry. In the long run, however, the best opportunities are expected in health care and electronics, which together are expected to comprise nearly two-thirds of the market by 2020.

Conventional nano-products that essentially are smaller versions of existing materials, (such as silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide and clay) are projected to achieve strong growth for decades to come. However, new nanomaterials (many of which are not yet commercialized) are expected to have even better growth.

The Company is positioned to enjoy competitive advantages both in conventional and new nanomaterials in the coming years.

On October 6, 2004, the Company announced its provisional patent for an agricultural application of nanotechnology: AuGRID plans to provide products and systems to control soil depletion in the U.S.A. and abroad.
Market Opportunity: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

U.S. demand for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is an important part of the ongoing surge in demand for “smart labels” both in retailing and supply chain management.

The U.S. market for smart labels is projected by The Freedonia Group to grow 14% annually through 2007, with shipments of 11 billion units valued at $460 million. By 2012, the industry will ship more than 30 billion units worth more than $1.2 billion. Smart labels used in supply chain management applications are forecast to reach 7.6 billion units by 2012, accounting for one quarter of the total demand. The retail segment will account for the largest chunk of the market, shipping more than 8 billion units in 2007 and more than 18 billion units in 2012.

Demand for smart labels based on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology will nearly triple each year. Both Wal-Mart and the Department of Defense are asking suppliers to tag pallets, cases, and items with RFID-based labels to improve supply chain visibility. RFID labels, in fact, will dominate the smart label market by 2012. Freedonia estimates that RFID will account for approximately 16% of the market in 2007, but grow to nearly 60% by 2012, with more than 17 billion units shipped.

In the near term, RFID market opportunities for RFID include labeling mail and packages, pallets, airline baggage, library books, and military asset tracking. The market drivers will include falling per-unit prices for RFID as a result of economies of scale, as well as the impact of technological advances and the establishment of uniform RFID standards.

Electronic article surveillance (EAS) anti-shoplifting labels will continue to dominate sales into the next decade. RFID are expected to replace traditional EAS labels in retail as manufacturers combine their security source tagging with RFID tracking in the supply chain, such that RFID tags that are embedded or attached at the factory will provide uninterrupted security and inventory tracking through the distribution channel to purchasing by the end-users. RFID systems can establish security zones within a store or military facility, and used with digital video surveillance to monitor and prevent problems – from shoplifting in WalMart to the unauthorized movement of secret documents or weapons at a military installation.

The Company’s RFID capabilities hold the potential for great commercial promise for supply chain management, retailing, and military applications, as well as the current focus on airport security.

According to a study by Scripps Howard News Services based on information from the General Services Administration, the Department of Homeland Security during its first year of operation paid private contractors at least $5 billion to make America safer from terrorist attack, including a strong focus on airport security. The $5 billion in contracts was about one-eighth of the department's $38 billion expenditure.

Success in airport security using RFID-based integrated computerized systems can be a springboard for entry into other markets.

HOUSTON, Dec 13, 2004 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- AuGRID Corporation (OTCBB:AGRI) announced that it will be temporarily trading under the symbol AGRIE (OTCBB:AGRIE). The new symbol ending with the letter "E" was imposed by NASDAQ.

und 10 Millionen Schulden laut letztem Report:
We have incurred losses since our inception. We incurred net losses of $ 519,932 and $ 477,898 for the 3rd quarter ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. As of September 30, 2004, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $ 10,016,814 million

One consultant seems to occupy a particularly favored position. Between January 7, 2003 and June 6, 2003, Ahmad Alyasin Albadarneh, and his firm Optima Ventures, Inc., received at least 35.5 million shares of Augrid common stock pursuant to a series of consulting agreements (and amendments to those agreements). See Augrid Corporation, Part II - S-8's Are Us. All of those shares were registered – and therefore available for immediate sale – on Forms S-8 filed by AuGrid.
it recently renewed the relationship, entering into yet another consulting agreement with Optima – this time in exchange for 50 million shares of AuGrid common stock.
Perhaps that explains the recent spike in AuGrid trading

na da muss man schon ziemlich pumpen!

Thema: As it pertains to your questions:




Dear Shareholders,

 

I am getting overwhelm here with the amount of emails. I don’t mind answering your concerns but the amount of time I am employing answering emails could be more fruitful in other task - like taking this company forward!

 

Especially when the same question is being ask time and time again…!

 

In regards to all your questions –

 

Earnings – As previously mentioned, there was little business done in Q-3 because business some deals rolled over to Q-4. The company is very positive on the outlook of the next couple of quarters, and exceptionally positive outlook for ’05. The events in the USconcerning the re-election of Mr. Bush are very positive news for the future of our company. As Mr. Bush pointed out yesterday he will e taking the rest of the week off at CampDavisand sort out cabinet changes that need addressing. We look forward to any new appointments concerning military contracts and will be pursuit them as soon as we are given a green light.

 

Bankruptcy – The Company has means to finance any contract that comes to the table. As mentioned before we have several deals in the works and more that are not public information. These will be made public once and only when they have been solidified.

 

Stock Price – Nor I, nor this company has a say and or any control over this. Our job is to make this company profitable and that is what we are focusing on. I believe that only when the company reflects a profit that proper valuation will be achieve. Although I am not capable of offering a buy and or sale recommendation – I strongly believe that AGRI is grossly under value in comparison to its access –

 

Please allow me to focus on my job – We’ll make public announcement to every event as they unfold and as SEC standards demand it.

 

Thank you very much,

und wenn ich denke wie lange hier schon gewarnt wurde....  

das ist ja nicht zu glauben...
das ist ja DIE müllfirma per se *gggg*  

hält?!

Wow,die ist aber nicht besser mein Freund.  

dass es ein griff ins klo war. aufgrund der veröffentlichten mails im W:O-board kann man das wohl nachvollziehen.

was man dagegen nicht nachvollziehen kann ist die affenartige nibelungentreue zu caly, die euch selbst in euren filings sagen, dass es umsätze frühstens im 2 Hj2005 geben wird. konsequent werden dies fakten aber ignoriert. wie dumm muß man sein, um so verbohrt zu sein...  

zwei unterschiedliche kaliber, obwohl ich keiner der beiden firmen wirklich vertraue, denke ich schon dass caly noch explodieren wird...  

den thread ab und zu.

Dabei ist mir nur aufgefallen,wie Du die Investierten mit ihrer "Nibelungentreue" angreifst.

Da dachte ich, dass Du mehr Wert auf Substanz legst und nicht für solch eine Aktie(trotz deiner eingeräumten Vorbehalte) einen thread eröffnest.
 

er ist immer topinformiert & hat lauter supertipps auf lager *gg*
