Thousands at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show Herald Pocket Radar as One of This Year's Top New Innovations

SANTA ROSA, Calif.--Set to be available to consumers this Spring, Pocket Radar™, the world’s first and only full performance, palm-sized speed radar device that puts consumers in the action, has already captured the attention of industry, media and consumers alike, while on display at last week’s 2010 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. Following its highly anticipated debut at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show’s Unveiled press event, in which hundreds of media were given a first look at the 2010 Innovation’s Honoree, the pocket-sized speed radar device received the 2010 Editor’s Choice Award from Popular Mechanics magazine, citing it as one of the best new products at the 2010 CES.

“After years of research and development, it is rewarding to see Pocket Radar recognized by the industry’s trend spotters. It only serves to reaffirm that the timing is right for Pocket Radar’s introduction into the consumer marketplace.”

Handpicked by Editor-In-Chief, James Meigs, and the knowledgeable staff at Popular Mechanics magazine, Pocket Radar was chosen from more than 1,000 eligible products based on its combination of compact, palm-sized design, coupled with break-through speed radar technology and point-and-shoot functionality that provides users with extremely accurate, real-time speed measurements of moving objects with the touch of a button. James Meigs personally presented the award to Pocket Radar in a private ceremony held above the Consumer Electronics Show floor on Thursday evening in Las Vegas.

“To be recognized as a leader at the premiere showcase of the world’s top consumer electronics innovators is a great honor and is a testament to the fact that Pocket Radar’s design and technology is ushering in a new era in speed radar technology for everyday consumers,” said Steve Goody, Pocket Radar’s CEO and cofounder. “After years of research and development, it is rewarding to see Pocket Radar recognized by the industry’s trend spotters. It only serves to reaffirm that the timing is right for Pocket Radar’s introduction into the consumer marketplace.”
