Created as part of the Los Angeles Auto Show’s Design Challenge 2012, the Ener-G-Force from Mercedes was envisioned as a highway patrol car for the year 2025.
It features a hydrogen powerplant and abandons the G-wagen’s boxy exterior for some swoopy goodness.
Narcotics, Patrol Rifle, Riot Control and HAZMAT patches have been added to SOTech’s line of Police Symbology. The patches are hook and loop backed and also have a low-profile fabric loop for hang cord attachment for use as a gear bag identifier. The first symbology patches SOTech designed were military oriented and are provided on official SOCOM issue Mission Go Bags and SOF medical bags identifying the contents of the bags for quick recognition in the field. From these symbols, SOTech developed the TMPST magnet tile planning and training tool that is currently in use throughout the Army. Over the last year personnel from LAPD, LASD and other local departments have been working with SOTech to adapt both TMPST and the symbology patches for law enforcement use. Stay tuned, SOTech is already designing another set with input from SSD reader suggestions.

Mission Ready Services Inc announced today that they have acquired a 100% interest in No-Contact, LLC a research and development company focused on wearable technologies synthesizing advanced textiles with electronics and computation for personal protection and safety.
No-Contact’s technology is really cool. In January of 2010 we described it as “the stungun you wear“.
Founded by Adam Whiton, a PhD candidate from MIT, and apparel engineer Yolita Nugent, No-Contact’s proprietary technology known as Electro Muscular Disruption technology (“EMD”), was originally envisioned to protect women from sexual assault but security personnel and law enforcement officers soon realized it could also be used protect them when confronted with close-quarter assault situations. It delivers a high-voltage but low-amperage charge to deter, but not seriously injure, an attacker. They’ve worked out the kinks. It won’t affect the wearer thanks to a shock and waterproof barrier.
“We are excited to welcome Adam Whiton and Yolita Nugent to Mission Ready and feel that their expertise will be instrumental in the Company’s many research and developments projects moving forward. This acquisition furthers our Mission to offer unrivaled products and services in the global defense, security and first-responder markets,” said Rod Reum, President & CEO of Mission Ready.
No-Contact brings a great deal of expertise in integrating electronics with clothing. The implications are huge for the military and law enforcement markets as well as for consumers.
