CoVi

CoVi was formed in 2002 when a group of seven technology, marketing and industry surveillance experts merged. Their vision laid the groundwork for CoVi's Total Video QualtiyT (TVQ), a concept that integrates every component within a video surveillance system, so that an image can maintain a consistently high resolution as it is transmitted, recorded, stored and shared. CoVi has created a suite of high definition sensor based products that dramatically improve the quality, usability, scalability, and affordability of CCTV and IP video surveillance.
Today, after extensive research, development and testing, CoVi is the first to offer a systems-based approach to high-definition video surveillance. If you compare images captured on CoVi systems to those based on older technologies, you will see that CoVi images remain clear at every point of contact while others lose integrity after being transferred, downloaded and recorded, resulting in grainy images and a loss of information.
CoVi's system-wide TVQ applications provide crisp, accurate high-definition imagery when and where it is needed. This revolutionary improvement has changed the way security professionals plan, execute and manage information. Now, businesses, governments and individuals have a better set of tools to safeguard valuable assets, deter crime, monitor facilities, respond to security issues and provide crucial evidentiary material, resulting in a safer environment to live and work.
Marathon Sensors

Primary Business:
Develops and markets atmosphere sensors and instrumentation which address the needs of the heat treating, power generation, glass and ceramic, refining and petrochemical, metals reheat, and incineration industries.
Location:
Marathon Sensors Inc. is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, and has representatives, agents, and distributors around the world.
Corporate History:
Marathon Sensors Inc., formerly Marathon Monitors, was established in 1982 as a manufacturer of oxygen probes. In the beginning, the company focused exclusively on the heat-treat industry, designing and manufacturing probes, and later instrumentation and control systems that met the needs of this demanding environment. As the company grew and expanded, markets in Europe and the Pacific Rim were established in 1985.
In 1995, the company expanded its product line and market coverage when it acquired the technology rights of Zircoa (division of Corning). This acquisition of oxygen sensors and instruments for the measurement and control of O2 in the combustion process, allowed MSI to expand into the refinery/petrochemical, fossil fuel power, glass and ceramics, incineration and the steel reheat industries.
Renaissance Lighting

Renaissance Lighting
Renaissance Lighting is an industry leader and pioneer in the development of intelligent solid-state lighting systems, a truly disruptive technology that utilizes light emitting diodes (LEDs) as light sources rather than traditional-lamp based technologies such as incandescent, halogen, neon or fluorescent.
Renaissance Lighting was launched in 2001 to commercialize a unique and proprietary optical design which can be leveraged to produce superior solid-state or LED lighting fixtures, marketed under the company’s evo brand, in addition to conventional lighting fixtures. Specifically, the company has developed Intelli Blend™, an architecture that allows for a unique dispersion of light from any type of light source using Constructive Occlusion® that efficiently creates a pleasing, even light distribution pattern over large surface areas.
Renaissance Lighting’s revolutionary approach to light distribution, Intelli Blend™, combines unsurpassed uniformity and performance with exciting new architectural designs. Intelli Blend™ enables Renaissance Lighting to overcome some of the industry’s most complex technical issues and offers for the first time, high intensity LED-based white light for general lighting applications.
The company’s evo fixtures are a revolutionary solid-state lighting product that provides the industry's highest quality LED light output for ambient and task lighting applications. Its innovative Constructive Occlusion® design eliminates the effects of individual LEDs, creating homogenous and highly uniform light output of any one of over 16 million color combinations, including white light of any color temperature. Its integrated sensor monitors color quality and intensity, automatically correcting for variations. To overcome the very real problem of LED degradation, the company’s evo fixtures incorporates patented sleeper LEDs that are only activated when necessary to maintain output or color consistency.
