LOS ANGELES, July 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Divergent Technologies Inc. ("Divergent"), the company that has developed the world's first end-to-end digital production system to revolutionize industrial-scale manufacturing, announced today that it has closed a new $60 million venture loan facility led by Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (NASDAQ: HRZN) ("Horizon"), and a new $20 million revolving line of credit provided by Bridge Bank, a division of Western Alliance Bank (NYSE: WAL) ("Bridge Bank"). The new facilities follow Divergent's successful $160 million Series C funding earlier this year.

Under the terms of the venture loan agreement, Horizon, a leading specialty finance company that provides capital in the form of secured loans to venture capital backed companies in the technology, life science, healthcare information and services, and sustainability industries, funded $15 million of the initial draw from the venture loan facility, and a private investment vehicle managed by Horizon Technology Finance Management LLC, Horizon's adviser, funded $5 million. The venture loan facility provides up to an additional $40 million of funding to Divergent upon meeting certain milestones.

Under the terms of the line of credit, Bridge Bank, whose Technology Banking Group provides financing solutions to venture capital backed technology companies at all stages of their life cycle, established a $20 million line of credit with Divergent whowill use the funds for growth and working capital purposes.

Its full-stack, state-of-the-art Divergent Adaptive Production System ("DAPS") simultaneously aids in automating design, additive manufacturing (3-D printing) and assembling complex vehicle structures. As a result, the DAPS platform significantly reduces development and production timelines, and Divergent has established a world-class pipeline of OEM customers.

"We are pleased to receive support from Horizon and Bridge Bank as we continue to revolutionize complex industrial manufacturing, initially with automobiles and over time with aerospace and defense," said Kevin Czinger, lead inventor, founder and Chief Executive Officer of Divergent. "DAPS makes it possible for the first time for manufacturers to forego the capital-intensive static design system they have been accustomed to for over a century, and utilize a variable cost flexible design system that is significantly more efficient. Through this added efficiency, DAPS radically reduces the impact of manufacturing on the environment, thereby making a meaningful contribution to global sustainability."

"Divergent is changing the game for manufacturing vehicles, with their DAPS end-to-end platform providing manufacturers with unmatched cost savings and flexibility," said Gerald A. Michaud, President of Horizon. "With over 500 patent filings, DAPS is a cutting-edge approach that enables Divergent customers to create new product models much more quickly and efficiently.

SALEM, Va. (WFXR) The Boston Red Sox are always looking for ways to make their players better on and off the field especially with their minor league affiliates. Salem Red Sox general manager Allen Lawrence says the technology installed at Salem Memorial Ballpark is helping the players take their game to the next level.

We just recently had 24 cameras installed around the ballpark fans will see them come out here. But it was done in about two weeks its by a company called KinaTrax and its really a state of the art program that collects data on both the pitcher and the batter to help measure performance and can potentially avoid that player getting injured down the road, said Lawrence.

Originally installed by the Boston Red Sox Kinatraxs Algorithim can evaluate a players performance in near real time the markerless motion capture technology data allows for athletes to adjust their mechanics so that the red sox can get the best results out of the player on the field.

Technology has just changed sports in general and even more specifically baseball and so to have that knowledge and to have the ability to look ahead and see what a player might be doing incorrectly in terms of the form to avoid injury down the road I think speaks volumes to where the game is going and the fact that its in our facility here in Salem I think it just speaks to how important these players on the field are to the success of the Boston Red Sox somewhere down the road, said Lawrence.

For Lawrence player development is the top priority. You know the analytics in the game of baseball has really changed the sport over the last 10-15 years and this was system that was in stalled by the Boston Red Sox player development and keeping players healthy is obviously something that is very important to them so were lucky to have it here in Salem, said Lawrence. Lawrence said the technology has continued to help many of the players especially those who have currently moved up through Red Sox minor league system that may one day get the opportunity to play in the big show at Fenway Park

First-ever application of vertical location data through an IoT-enabled connected workers solution

MCLEAN, Va., July 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --NextNav,a leader in next generation GPS, has partnered with VOS Systems to bring vertical location capabilities to its CoRe product line through NextNav's Pinnacle service. Together, the two companies will spearhead the first connected worker solution to have vertical location capabilities, providing increased employee safety, improving workplace efficiency, and allowing for faster emergency response to affected workers.

The addition of vertical location services through NextNav enhances VOS Systems' offerings without requiring additional localized or on-premise infrastructure and provides important location intelligence in multistory buildings and locations, even in areas without WiFi or internet access like construction sites. In industries like construction, vertical location capabilities provide information such as what floor a worker is on that can be critical in emergency situations and would otherwise be unavailable with traditional 2D location lone worker safety systems.

VOS Systems empowers businesses with internet of things (IoT) solutions designed to improve employee safety and increase workplace efficiency. Its technology provides location data on lone workers, including construction workers, warehouse employees, and school staff, which is critical in emergency situations and can be used to help businesses make decisions on staffing, safety, and privacy. CoRe, VOS Systems' all-encompassing platform that connects people, equipment and tools using 5G enabled wearables and sensors designed for construction and other complex environments, will integrate NextNav's Pinnacle service, adding vertical location data for enhanced monitoring of workers.

"At NextNav, we're enhancing location data to the three-dimensional world we live in," said Dan Hight, Vice President of Business Development and Partnerships at NextNav. "By bringing our Pinnacle service to VOS Systems' technology, we're helping businesses understand what floor their workers are on, improving safety and communication. Together, we're setting a path forward for a safer and more efficient workplace for personnel across several industries from construction to education."

"We design our solutions to be ultra-scalable without the need for complicated on-site infrastructure or the need to encroach on people's cellphones. And central to our offering is safety. We understand the immediate need for vertical location to improve lone worker safety," said Omar Ghazzaoui, founder and CEO of VOS Systems. "Many lone workers work in multi-story buildings, and this implementation will allow our customers to have precise vertical location data on their whereabouts in the event of an emergency. This technology will allow us to improve emergency response and, ultimately, save lives."
