[INQ. NO. 1404E17] Fibertron offers its primary product FOSM (Fiber Optic Security Mesh) as the unique foolproof perimeter intrusion detection system and three types of sensing wire products such as FMSW (Fence Mount Sensing Wire) and SWF (Sensing Wire Fence) to provide low-cost but highly cost-effective perimeter security protection and SWN (Sensing Wire Net) to stop and detect suicide fall from a bridge or an intruder jumping in from extruded trees along a site perimeter.

The purpose of PIDS (Perimeter Intrusion Detection System) is to surely detect any possible intrusion which may happen very rarely but likely by highly skilled terrorist groups like Al-Qaeda. The facilities buy the PIDS not only to absolutely protect from intrusion but also to have peace of mind like when buying an insurance policy.

Unreliable PIDS that does not guarantee to sound the alarm when an actual intrusion occurs or put out nuisance alarms is actually of no security effect to have the site remain vulnerable to intrusion and waste money. There exist about forty intrusion sensors over the world which can be classified as vibration sensor, EM (Electro-Magnetic) field sensor and taut wire sensor.

Vibration sensors are mounted to fence fabric and detect cutting through fence fabric but are unable to detect climbing over from a shoulder /ladder without touching the fence fabric and put out numerous nuisance alarms seriously being affected by wind, rain, flying debris, animals, thunder, moving vehicles etc., or lose/deteriorate sensitivity at bad weather and harsh terrain condition.

EM field sensors also emit numerous nuisance alarms or lose/deteriorate sensitivity being seriously affected by wind, rain, haze, trees, animals, lightning, power lines etc. Taut Wire sensors are not free from nuisance alarming being intrinsically affected by terrain condition and storm, thunder, moving vehicles and expose a number of weaknesses due to which the system can be vulnerable to defeat by an intruder.

FOSM (Fiber Optic Security Mesh) is reputed as the unique foolproof – accurate – nuisance alarm free to comply with the purpose of PIDS overcoming the weakness and limitation of other types of sensors. FOSM (Fiber Optic Security Mesh) operates based on Optical Radar Technology. The system injects Infrared Laser pulses into FOM (Fiber Optic Mesh) to identify intrusion from the presence of abnormal Optical echoes caused by either intruder cutting or excess force and pinpoints the intrusion spot on the monitor with audible & visible alarm at Security Control Center.

The fundamental technologies of FOSM was invented by Dr. Youn Bae in 1982 while serving as a researcher at the Korea Agency for Defense Development (ADD) and later far upgraded graudally to the current level of commercial version by Fibertron Co., Ltd. over 30 years. The first domestic commercial version was introduced in 1997 as model SPIDER-99 after obtaining “NT Certificate” by Korea Testing Institute which means new and superb over any other existing products and installed at a number of Korea domestic facilities such as airports, LNG Reservoir, Nuclear Power Plants, Communication sites etc.

From 2001 upon reception of foreign inquiries, Fibertron introduced the first commercial version with trademark FOMGuard and installed at a number of eminent foreign government & industrial facilities such as Saudi ARAMCO, Singapore ISTANA & Ministry of Defense, Japan Nuclear power plants, Kuwait Ministry of Foreign Affairs and overseas embassies and consulates etc.

In 2007, Fibertron further upgraded to introduce Woven FOM for drastically reducing weight and cost as well as enhancing the quality and installed the upgraded product at a number of Korea Military Sites and nuclear power plants and Kuwait Diplomatic Facilities in Nairobi and Dubai. In 2012 to differentiate from the previous ‘FOMGuard’ which was confused by the companies ( Z-Inc., F-Inc., HInc.) cheated the security society as the inventor and the installer, Fibertron renamed the upgraded as ‘FOM Sensor’ or ‘Fiber Optic Security Mesh (FOSM)’ and registered the technology under US patent #US8,325,038B2 in DEC 2012.

FOSM shall perfectly protect important facilities such as air force bases, airports, missile sites, nuclear power plants, gas/oil/water reservoirs, electric power plants, military headquarters, military sites, palaces, jewelry/semiconductor factories, jails, National Institutes, borders, VIP residential areas etc.

from rare but feared intrusion as well as providing peace of mind in normal times.
