We've been involved with the NRC, the National Research Council, and the SR and ED tax credit. However, the NRC regularly runs out of money to provide for research and development companies. And because research and development is where a lot of the money goes before your product goes to market, it's hard to continue that research and development.
I was able to find statistics on research and development as it pertained to the oil and gas communications. However, I was not able to find statistics as it related specifically to safety and security technologies.
