RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Oct. 30 (UPI) -- The National Guard Bureau announced it has contracted North Carolina-based Cyberlux Corp. for 17 BrightEye Visible and Covert Portable Illumination Systems.
Cyberlux is a developer of LED (light-emitting diode) lighting solutions. Under the contract Cyberlux will provide the BrightEye Systems at a cost of $313,004, which is a follow-on order from April.
The National Guard Bureau says the BrightEye Systems will be deployed to the 17 CERFP teams (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High-yield Explosive Enhanced Response Force Package) aligned with the Federal Emergency Management Agency's 10 regions.
"This next National Guard Bureau order signifies the level of capability and field performance our BrightEye System delivers in support of the National Guard's most important disaster response missions," Mark Schmidt, president and chief operating officer of Cyberlux, said in a statement.
"With CERFP teams supporting all the FEMA regions within the U.S., we anticipate ongoing BrightEye needs within the National Guard. We are making important progress with our Military and Homeland Security customers including the recent successful U.S. Air Force BrightEye evaluation and this National Guard CERFP deployment, the first step in deploying our BrightEye tactical lighting solution within the broader scope of operations by the National Guard."
