(VSPC) Viaspace agreement with ViaLogy Corp.

VIASPACE Developing Technology to Detect Suicide Bombers; Arroyo Sciences
Announces Collaboration Agreement With ViaLogy Corp.


PASADENA, Calif., Aug. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
VIASPACE Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: VSPC - News), a company that transforms
proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense
into hardware and software solutions that solve today's complex problems,
announced today that its subsidiary Arroyo Sciences has entered into a
strategic collaboration agreement with ViaLogy Corp. to develop and
commercialize instruments to detect concealed improvised explosive devices
(IED) worn by suicide bombers and other concealed weapons. This application is
directed at homeland security and defense markets. Another application is to
detect pilfered industrial items and other contraband concealed under a
person's clothing. ViaLogy Corp. develops and markets active signal processing
software solutions based on a revolutionary signal processing technology,
Quantum Resonance Interferometry (QRI), which detects and discriminates data
obscured by background noise with very high sensitivity and accuracy.
This collaboration is directly responding to an increased global threat from
improvised explosive devices. The announcement was made by AJ Abdallat,
COO of VIASPACE.

The Arroyo Sciences project, code-named DEEPSCAN, combines advanced sensor
hardware with proprietary software from Arroyo and ViaLogy. The goal is to
produce a network-centric smart sensor with real-time threat isolation software.
DEEPSCAN will deliver an integrated computational system based on Arroyo's
proprietary ViaCore sensor fusion engine and ViaLogy's QRI software. The two
companies are evaluating several sensor candidates for DEEPSCAN development.
Originally, intended for real-time seaport and airport cargo scanning and
analysis of data acquired using X-ray and gamma ray sensors, DEEPSCAN
architecture has been expanded now to address scanning of vehicles and people.
Arroyo and ViaLogy have also conducted initial trials on concealed weapon
detection using an advanced imager. DEEPSCAN's goal is to detect concealed
explosives from standoff distances.


DEEPSCAN technology from Arroyo and ViaLogy is protected by 12 issued and
allowed patents and several patents pending. An immediate application for
DEEPSCAN would be entrances to critical infrastructure, transportation
facilities and border crossings.
