Tokyo Institute Of Technology Orders VIASPACE Humidity Sensors
PR NEWSWIRE
Posted: 2007-11-12 13:09:40
PASADENA, Calif., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VIASPACE Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: VSPC), a company that transforms proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense into hardware and software solutions, announced today that it has shipped two of its VIASENSOR HS-1000 humidity sensors to the Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan.

The performance of hydrogen fuel cells using a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) depends on the moisture level of the membrane. The membrane only conducts protons when it is hydrated or moist. The moisture is provided by water vapor in the incoming air or hydrogen stream. The VIASENSOR HS-1000 humidity instrument provides real-time measurements of the amount of water vapor in these gas streams.

VIASPACE CEO Carl Kukkonen stated, "We are happy to add the Tokyo Institute of Technology to our growing list of VIASENSOR HS-1000 customers. The Tokyo Institute is a world leader in the research and development of hydrogen based fuel cells, and our demonstration of the HS-1000 several weeks ago at their facility resulted in this order. The HS-1000 is a leading edge, laser-based sensor with considerable improvement in accuracy and response time over other available instruments. We feel that the VIASENSOR will help the Tokyo Institute of Technology more rapidly optimize fuel cell designs for their government and commercial research programs in Japan."

About VIASPACE: Founded in 1998 with the objective of transforming proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense into hardware and software solutions that solve today's complex problems, VIASPACE benefits from important patent and software licenses from Caltech, which manages NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
