A -- RETRACTABLE BARRIER STRIP. Contact Mr. Larry W. Hops. Lockheed Idaho Technologies Company (LITCO), P.O. Box 1625, Idaho Falls, ID 83415-3810. LITCO, the prime operating contractor for the Department of Energy at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) has developed and a patent has been applied for the following technology: Retractable Spiked Barrier Strip. This device is a highly innovative method for disabling fleeing or speeding vehicles. The invention is a portable and retractable spiked strip that may be placed on the roadway in front of fleeing or speeding vehicles. Since the hollow spikes can be retracted it allows for vehicles, other than fleeing or speeding vehicles, to pass without harm. The control system to activate (raise or lower) the spikes is approximately (12) twelve feet from the beginning of the Barrier Strip which allows the operator to be out of harms way. The spikes can be retracted which eliminates the possibility of the operator accidentally falling on the device during deployment and becoming injured by the spikes. LITCO is soliciting a written indication of interest from industry parties who would consider entering into license negotiations for the purpose of commercializing this technology. Interested parties should send a description of their company, their research and manufacturing capability to: Mr. Larry W. Hops, Account Executive, Technology Transfer Office, Lockheed Idaho Technologies Company, P.O. Box 1625, Idaho Falls, ID 83415-3810. This solicitation will close (30) thirty days after publication in this issue of the Commerce Business Daily. (046)
