MELBOURNE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 25, 1997--

Integrates Micron Technology to Broaden Application of FotoTag
Airport System

Exigent International, Inc. (CHX: XNT, XNTWS; OBB:XGNT, XGNTW)
today announced its FotoTag, Inc. subsidiary has introduced
FotoTag(TM) ActiveTracking Engine(TM). The new system facilitates
tracking and control of people and objects in a wide range of
environments. The first generation of FotoTag(TM) tracked passengers
and their luggage from flight check-in to aircraft boarding.
A patent application for the new FotoTag(TM) ActiveTracking
Engine(TM) has been filed.
This Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 95 and Windows(R) NT based system is
user friendly and promotes flexibility and expandability to other
application domains. It is capable of performing such diverse
functions as passenger/baggage reconciliation and tracking the
movement of people and goods in the manufacturing environment. It
also shows exceptional promise for financial transaction automation,
materials handling control, personnel ID and access control, and
retail automation.
FotoTag(TM) ActiveTracking Engine(TM) features the integration
with Micron Communications' MicroStamp(R) Remote Integrated Circuit
(RIC) technology. The MicroStamp is a very small, high-performance,
high-frequency, low cost unit based on the MicroStamp integrated
circuit.
Management was not specific about the potential market for
ActiveTracking Engine(TM) but has said the original FotoTag(TM)
passenger/baggage reconciliation system alone could have a market
potential for thousands of airports worldwide.
Exigent International, based in Melbourne, Florida, is a public
holding company that currently has two high-tech subsidiaries,
Software Technology, Inc. (STI) and Fototag, Inc. STI is the
world's leading developer of systems that track and control satellite
constellations such as IRIDIUM(R) and Global Positioning System
(GPS). FotoTag, Inc. develops systems that track location and
movement of people and objects.
Micron Communications, Inc. is a subsidiary of Micron
Technology, Inc., which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under
the symbol MU.

Follows an article with relevance to our favorite satellite command & control system company


Not only with relavance, but with REFERENCE:

To date, Iridium is clearly in the lead of becoming the first global wireless system as it has successfully launched 39 of its 66 satellites in its planned LEO constellation. The Motorola-backed
venture may actually succeed in introducing its services sometime in 1998.


Exigent is a partner in the IRIDIUM project aren't they?
