COSTA MESA, Calif., June 3 (UPI) -- Irvine Sensors Corp. of California has entered into a distribution agreement for the sale of its products to a South Korean optics manufacturer.
The agreement was reached with JXP Tech, the U.S. company that represents Dong In Optical Co., Ltd., a manufacturer and exporter of various weapons sights and mounts that have been adopted by the South Korean army and law enforcement agencies.
The JXP Distribution Agreement includes all thermal imaging products manufactured by Irvine Sensors, other than the firm's clip-on thermal imaging cores and derivatives, for export to South Korea.
"We have proven experience on the application of our thermal imaging technology to products other than COTI and we are putting increased emphasis on marketing for such applications," said Bill Joll, Irvine Sensors' chief executive officer. "We believe the distribution agreement with JXP and the resulting access to D.I. Optical could open a significant global channel for us."
In Jung, chief of executive officer of D.I. Optical, said "We believe their advanced thermal imaging technology and products, combined with D.I. Optical's dot sights, will give us a competitive edge in the South Korean market by providing our customers with a wider range of products focused and aligned to their needs."
Irvine Sensors is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and sale of security, software, vision systems and miniaturized electronic products and higher level systems, incorporating such products for defense, information technology and physical security for government and commercial applications.
