Demonstration of the real system MWPS January 14, 2010:
It is with extreme weather conditions and in the presence of many participants, was held on the Saint Elmo made available to the consortium by the Navy, the demonstration system MWPS. The entire chain has been tested successfully: the detection of moving targets with incremental responses: the form of focused lighting, sound messages and accrued pyrotechnic effects (eg effects of deafening).

The aim of this project is to provide a flexible, gradual and efficient reaction to a potential threat coming from suspicious boats, in the framework of sensitive marine areas protection. This system includes 4 main functions:
- Day and night detection of boats moving in restricted areas
- Warning through ultra directional sound message, and ultra directional night lighting
- Intimidation through launching non-lethal pyrotechnic charges
- Physical blocking of the threat through non-lethal means.
