The Company was incorporated in August 1997 and officially commenced operations in January 1998. Our office is located in Canberra which is the capital of Australia.

The research and development that our Company undertakes provides:

• generic solutions which extend the reach and useability of the patented Kord® Interface Technologies;
• entirely new technologies which have “Blue Sky” applications;
• unique or generic intellectual property which will benefit other global technologies, and;
• solutions for in-house technologies.

We intend to become a world leader in the provision of innovative products, ideas and intellectual property for mobile computers and electronic devices. This will be achieved, in the first instance, by ensuring that the Kord® Interface Technologies are exploited as widely as possible in the world.

• Provision of two prototype Underwater Combat Systems (in collaboration with AIMS) for use by mine clearance divers from the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). The units were successfully trialed in Jervis Bay in November 1998.
• Development of a prototype CGUI for Nautronix Ltd, to enable RAN divers to compose and send pre-formatted messages underwater.
• Development of prototype handheld “Data Rekorders” for use by Australian Army observers during combat training exercises.
• Development of concept demonstrator hardware and software for assessment by Australian Special Forces.
• Development of prototype “rugged” Kord® Pads (with SVAs) and software for the Royal Netherlands Army.

Personnel from WetPC P/L have also undertaken a desktop assessment study of underwater technologies, as well as developed proof-of-concept software and hardware for a range of defence applications (e.g. special forces, snipers, scouts, command messaging).

In undertaking these projects WetPC P/L has utilised the services of a number of companies and individuals to provide us with key hardware and software components. These subcontractors are situated throughout Australia.
