Venti LLC (Venti) of New Bern, NC, a service-disabled veteran owned small business (SDVoSB), is an advanced technology firm. The company is focused on innovation for first responder/homeland security agencies utilizing its proprietary Intelipod system. Intelipod is a networked small, expendable (consumable), configurable, scalable, and deployable set of sensor pods that detect and geo-locate a wide range of data in emergency environments and transmit actionable information to ruggedized displays. These data provide on-scene incident commanders and other personnel with both real time geospatial and metric visuals detailing the presence, intensity, and direction of threats or signs of human activity. The Venti solution is ‘anytime ready’, in any environment, requiring no pre-placement or set up time, and circumvents the need for personnel to enter hazardous areas for situational assessments.
