ATC Wins Navy Business
American Technology Corp. (ATC) will participate with Bath Iron Works (BIW), a General Dynamics Company in a contract awarded by the U.S. Navy's SMART CARRIER program to Bath Iron Works. ATC and BIW will provide Superior Sound Technology installations in difficult audio communications areas. ATC also announced a separate project with Bath Iron Works for Ship's Force protection. Both projects are expected to bring approximately $175,000 in revenue to ATC over the next five months. Under the U.S. Navy contract, ATC will provide several NeoPlanar(TM) speakers and hardware as well as consulting services. The Navy's objective is to improve audio clarity and intelligibility of communications over shipboard address systems and to achieve other advantages inherent in ATC's NeoPlanar technology.
ATC Gets USS Harry S. Truman Contract
American Technology Corporation (ATC) received another order for NeoPlanar-based SoundSaber acoustic panels for installation in the hangar bays of nuclear powered aircraft carriers. The order and installation for the USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) comes on the heels of the successful installation of SoundSaber acoustic panels aboard the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69) in December 2005. The aggregate amount of the orders is approximately $405,000. The SoundSaber acoustic panels are a part of a mission critical system for general announcing and emergency notification. The SoundSaber line has passed Grade “A” shock and vibration and received a Common Intelligibility Standard grade of 0.95 out of 1.00; typical outdoor public address systems grade between 0.75 and 0.79.
