Physical AI detection and a closed-chamber destruction platform that has run since 2001. Every round we destroy teaches the AI what to look for. Every find it makes feeds the platform.
In service
25 yrs
eMACS in the field since 2001, co-developed with the RCMP.

Served across Canada, including Toronto Police.

Mobile units, deployable in days.
Unlike a rifle or a hull, ammunition must be destroyed to be retired.
World military expenditure, 2025

All-time record, eleventh consecutive rise. SIPRI, Apr 2026.
Pool 01 // Allied stockpile turnover
Europe doubled military spending 2016 to 2025. NATO identifies $145bn of munitions requirements and Allied production is up roughly sixfold.
Armed conflicts involving states, 2025
65
The most since records began in 1946. UCDP / Davies, Pettersson & Öberg, JPR 2026.
Pool 02 // Post-conflict recovery
Ukraine's explosive-hazard management need is put at US$27.6bn for 2026 to 2035 across roughly 133,000 km² (RDNA5).

Pool 03 // Every agency, every year
Destruction never industrialized. The status quo is a pit, a truck, or a pair of hands.
| Status quo | What happens | Exposure |
|---|---|---|
| 01 Open burn | Open burning and open detonation with no containment or emissions control. Roughly $750 per ton. EPA has proposed tighter standards (89 FR 19952) for the 67 US facilities still doing it. | REGULATORY |
| 02 Truck it away | Live ammunition loaded onto highways to reach a permitted depot. Every mile a diversion window, every transfer a custody break, every escort a cost the owner carries. | CUSTODY · COST |
| 03 Do it by hand | Los Angeles County, 18 July 2025: three sheriff's detectives killed processing seized ordnance. The default when nothing else is on site. | LIFE SAFETY |
| Dimension | Mobile custody system // End State | Fixed-plant demil |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | On site. The unit goes to the ordnance; material never leaves the owner's perimeter. | Fixed depot. Ordnance shipped to the plant. |
| Time to operational | Days. Trailer-deployable, minimal site preparation. | Months to years. Permitted infrastructure. |
| Capital intensity | Low. Single-unit capital cost. | High. Large-scale fixed-plant investment. |
| Ideal use | Distributed bases, police agencies, allied nations, surge capacity. | Centralised national stockpile reduction. |

Why the wheel is ours
Detection companies have no destruction throughput to learn from.
Destruction companies discard the data.
End State does both. Every round destroyed makes the next detection sharper.
