Experience
Our staff’s experience includes engineering and executive leadership in industries and corporations such as consumer electronics, avionics, industrial controls, and especially military and public safety communications. Our personnel have been intimately involved with development of communications systems for SOCOM, CECOM, Navy and the Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD*). Presently we are working on a High Output Warning Loudspeaker for a navy client, among other projects for military agencies.
Proprietary Technology
Our intellectual property includes trade secrets and methods for reliably reproducing spoken messages more loudly, clearly and intelligibly than commonly experienced by military personnel.
Conquest Innovations holds three pending patents related to voice hailing and messaging systems, and our experienced R&D team personnel are the inventors named on several patents in their prior work.
Conquest “building blocks” are available to our design team or our customers for assembling audio systems of many sizes and for many purposes. Microphone and signal amplification, level control, limiting, power amplification, and other functional blocks are ready to integrate, not waiting to be designed. To our customers, this means a concept demonstrator can be rapidly designed, assembled, and demonstrated to you and/or your customer.
Case Studies
U.S. Navy
Frustrated with the limited range and poor fidelity of existing hailing systems, a U.S. Navy contractor requested assistance from Conquest. Within seven months we developed a High Output Warning Loudspeaker fully operational prototype – a shipboard and waterside hailing system unlike any they had ever heard. With dramatically improved fidelity cutting through more than two times greater distance and substantial background noise, Navy officials unanimously agreed that the new system blew the competition out of the water at 300, 1000, and 1600 meters away.
CECOM
When the Army Communications and Electronics Command (CECOM) needed to replenish an obsolete intercom system, they turned to Conquest Innovations. We moved quickly to provide them with an economical and reliable option to the Army’s expensive 30 year old design.
