Ann: D13 CEO presented to Starburst Accelerator Conference, page-91

@ riverred: I believe Mesmer is by far superior to most of c-uas technology out there. Regards to slow uptake of D13's services and products I think you are spot on i.e. the threats to the commercial / private sector have not been as prevalent and we as humans live in reactive society where we have to first experience a threat before we are willing to spend our "hard earned" capital to further deter that threat. Unfortunately (and i from a personal standpoint hate to say it) the threat will come due to (1) the exponential increase expected for drone usage, and (2) human nature's strong desire to utilize any new technology for ill will, especially when the cost to purchase drones will only decrease over the years to come (due to technology advances and mass production) and using drones provides a certain (and inticing) degree of anonymity being that people don't have to be up-and-personal when committing crimes with drones. IMO initial contracts will come from major Defence sectors and these guys will want to extensively test Mesmer (which could take many months) and most likely would want to integrate into its existing technologies and/or may require D13 to modify their product to suit specific requirements before committing and cutting a massive PO to utilize Mesmer on a wide scale usually associated with Defense contracts. Disclosure of sells (including defense-related contracts) has to be made from a shareholder prospective however these can be made without announcing who the specific purchaser is and broadly describing what the technology will be used for - Droneshied has already made a couple of disclosures in this manner).

Reassurance comes from the fact that Mesmer only officially launched 3 months ago so I believe patience will be rewarded here and I'm glad I caught wind of D13 at this early stage.
