NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY  31, 1998

NOTE A -  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows
for the periods presented.  The accompanying unaudited financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and,
therefore, do not include all information necessary to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Reference is made to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended July 31, 1997.  

The results of operations for the six months ended January  31, 1998 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE B - INVENTORY

Inventory includes work-in-process of approximately $19,000 and $115,000 as of
January 31, 1998 and July 31, 1997, respectively.  The remaining inventory
consists of parts and subassemblies, both purchased and manufactured, that can
be used in the manufacturing process or sold as spare parts.

NOTE C - INCOME TAXES

The Company estimates its provision for income taxes using its estimated annual
effective rate.  The Company has limited the recognition of income tax benefit
for its net operating loss carryforwards due to cumulative losses realized in
recent years.  The valuation allowance for deferred taxes is $498,000 at
January  31, 1998 and $409,000 at July 31, 1997.

NOTE D - REVOLVING CREDIT

On January 31, 1998, the Company had a $1,550,000 line of credit with a bank,
with availability subject to a formula, bearing interest at one and one-half
percent above the bank's prime rate (effective rate of 10%).  The formula is
$950,000 based on the value of the real estate, with the remaining available
borrowings based on 50% of the value of certain receivables specified in the
line of credit agreement.  As of January 31, 1998, total remaining availability
was $401,000 based on the formula.  The outstanding balance under this line of
credit agreement was approximately $490,000 at January 31, 1998, with $59,000
of the line of credit agreement reserved for a standby letter of credit. This
compares to an outstanding balance of zero (effective rate of 10%) at July 31,
1997 with an additional $59,000 reserved for a standby letter of credit.

The Company has classified its total mortgage liability as current because the
mortgage agreement is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with the line of
credit, which is a secured master demand note.

NOTE F - EARNINGS PER SHARE

The computation of net earnings per share is based on the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding during the six and three month
periods ended January 31, 1998 and 1997.  The weighted average number of shares
used in the computation was 534,392 and 533,173 for the six months ended
January 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and 534,574 and 533,224 for the
quarter ended January 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, all of which were issued
and outstanding.  No adjustments were made to either net loss or the number of
shares outstanding in calculating loss per share as such adjustments would have
been antidilutive.

NOTE G - PROPOSED MERGER

The Company entered into a merger agreement (the "Merger") with S. T. Research
Corporation ("STR"), a Virginia corporation, on December 23, 1997.  Under the
agreement, each outstanding share of STR would be exchanged for 2.58 newly
issued shares of the Company's common stock and STR would become a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.  STR is a supplier of technology-driven solutions
for communications and radar intercept equipment to the U. S. government (its
principal customer) and a major supplier of threat warning systems to the
surface and subsurface community.  STR had revenues of approximately $24
million during its last fiscal year, and total assets of approximately $10.8
million and working capital of approximately $1.6 million at September 30,
1997.  The Merger is expected to close in the second quarter of calendar 1998
and will be subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, including the
approval of the Merger by the shareholders of STR and approval by the Company's
stockholders of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to permit the
issuance of shares pursuant to the Merger.  

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

GENERAL

The Company manufactures products for, and performs development projects in,
the field broadly described as "remote sensing".  The principal products
manufactured by the Company are airborne imaging systems which are installed in
aircraft for acquisition of data on environmental parameters.  A principal
application of the Company's remote sensing products has been the measurement
of environmental parameters in support of pollution control programs and
environmental impact studies. The Company is also engaged in customer-funded
projects for the development of advanced equipment in the remote sensing field.
Some of these projects may lead to the incorporation of newly developed
technology into existing or future product lines.

These two portions of the business are conducted by the same pool of personnel
using the same equipment and operating space and constitute a single industry
segment. The margins associated with these two portions of the business are
different, with standard products generally having higher margins than
customer-funded development projects.  The Company receives the majority





                                        
<PAGE>   7


Page 7


of its revenue from a small number of relatively large contracts.  Standard
product contracts are generally of higher dollar value than customer-funded
product development contracts, with each contract representing a substantial
portion of total revenue each year.  Therefore, the timing of the receipt of a
standard product sales contract as well as the related manufacturing endeavor
can have a material impact on a quarter-to-quarter or year-to-year comparison
of the Company's results of operations.  Most standard product sales contracts
and some customer-funded product development contracts are also accompanied by
a significant deposit.  Therefore, the timing of the contract receipt can have
a material impact on the Company's cash flow.

The Company incurred a significant loss in the first half of fiscal 1998 after
incurring significant losses for the last three fiscal years.  These losses
have caused the Company to experience severe liquidity problems and its bank
line of credit is being utilized to maintain operations. The Company's
short-term viability and operating results are dependent on its ability to
acquire additional equity capital or increase the level of new business and
cash flow.   See "Merger", "New Orders and Backlog" and "Liquidity and Sources
of Capital".  The Company's long-term viability is dependent upon its ability
to successfully implement its Growth Plan (described in the Company's Form
10-K) and attain consistent profitability.

MERGER

The Company entered into a merger agreement  (the "Merger") with S. T. Research
Corporation ("STR"), a Virginia corporation, on December 23, 1997.  Under the
agreement, each outstanding share of STR would be exchanged for 2.58 newly
issued shares of the Company's common stock and STR would become a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.  STR is a supplier of technology-driven solutions
for communications and radar intercept equipment to the U. S. government (its
principal customer) and a major supplier of threat warning systems to the
surface and subsurface community.  STR had revenues of approximately $24
million during its last fiscal year, and total assets of approximately $10.8
million and working capital of approximately $1.6 million at September 30,
1997.  The Merger is expected to close in the second quarter of calendar 1998
and will be subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, including the
approval of the Merger by the shareholders of STR and approval by the Company's
stockholders of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to permit the
issuance of shares pursuant to the Merger.  Although consummation of the Merger
is expected to dramatically increase the Company's consolidated revenues and
expenses and improve its profitability, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be profitable following consummation of the Merger.  The Company
believes that the Merger will provide the Company with additional equity
capital on a consolidated basis and improve its financial position.

OPERATING REVENUE

Standard product revenue and product development revenue for the six and three
month periods ended January 31, 1998 decreased from the comparable periods of
fiscal 1997 due to the low level of backlog at the beginning of fiscal 1998 and
the low level of bookings received during the period.

The level of the Company's revenues and profits has historically fluctuated
from quarter-to- quarter and from year-to-year as the majority of its revenue
is derived from a small number of





                                        
<PAGE>   8


Page 8


high dollar value contracts.  Although fluctuations are normal given the
Company's reliance on a small number of high value contracts for the majority
of its revenue, the low level of standard product orders received in the  last
three fiscal years is causing severe liquidity problems.  See "Merger", "New
Orders and Backlog" and "Liquidity and Sources of Capital".

DOMESTIC VS. INTERNATIONAL REVENUE

International revenue represented 19% and 52% of operating revenue during the
first half of fiscal 1998 and 1997, respectively, and 32% and 36% of total
revenue during the second quarter of fiscal 1998 and 1997, respectively.
International  revenue decreased compared to the same periods of fiscal 1997
primarily due to the Company's low level of international backlog at the
beginning of fiscal 1998 and the low level of bookings received during the
period.  The increase in domestic operating revenue in the first half  and
second quarter of fiscal 1998 from the same periods in fiscal 1997 is due to
the Company's recognition of revenue on several domestic contracts that were in
backlog at the beginning of fiscal 1998.

To mitigate foreign currency transaction losses, international contracts are
denominated in U.S. dollars and large standard product contracts are generally
secured by irrevocable letters of credit.  The Company also receives
substantial deposits on many large contracts with international customers.

NEW ORDERS AND BACKLOG

In the six months ended January 31, 1998, the Company received orders in the
amount of approximately $650,000 as compared to approximately $2,185,000 in the
comparable period of fiscal 1997. The Company's backlog at the end of the
second quarter was approximately $467,000, compared to approximately $1,691,000
at the end of the comparable period in fiscal 1997.  Approximately $399,000 of
the January 31, 1998 backlog is for standard products, with the balance being
related to customer service orders and  the two Phase II Small Business
Innovation Research (product development) contracts.  The Company has also been
selected for the award of two Phase I Small Business Innovation Research
contracts in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 for $140,000 and the Company is
negotiating an extension to an existing NASA contract for a value of
approximately $100,000.

The Company is engaged in negotiations for several standard product orders. The
negotiations for these orders have not been finalized and there can be no
assurance that these orders will be received.  The Company has some high value
components in inventory that will enable the Company to immediately recognize
revenue upon receiving one of these standard product orders.  The results of
operations for future periods are dependent upon the receipt and timing of
future orders, the success of management's growth strategy and the completion
of the Merger.  See "Merger" and "Liquidity and Sources of Capital".

COST OF REVENUE

In the first half and second quarter of fiscal 1998, cost of revenue increased
as a percentage of revenue compared to the same periods in fiscal 1997 due
primarily to higher cost standard product revenue contracts in fiscal 1998 and
also due to higher than anticipated costs on the two Small Business Innovation
Research programs.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research and development expense declined in the first half and second quarter
of fiscal 1998 as compared to the same periods one year earlier primarily due
to Airborne Digital Camera enhancements in the comparable periods of fiscal
1997.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

Selling and administrative expense decreased in the first half and second
quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to the same periods in fiscal 1997, primarily
due to agent commissions paid in the comparable periods of fiscal 1997.

INTEREST

Interest expense decreased in the first half and second quarter of fiscal 1998
compared to the same periods in fiscal 1997 due principally to the Company's
reduced borrowings.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL

The Company's primary sources of liquidity were funds from operations and
borrowings under a line of credit secured by substantially all of the Company's
assets including real estate.  The Company's line of credit provides for
borrowings of up to $1,550,000, with availability subject to a formula, bearing
interest at one and one-half percent above the lending bank's prime rate.  The
formula permits borrowings of up to $950,000 based on the value of the real
estate, with the remaining available borrowings based on 50% of the value of
certain receivables specified in the line of credit agreement.  As of  January
31, 1998, the Company had an outstanding balance of  $490,000 under the line of
credit, an additional  $59,000 reserved for a standby letter of credit and
additional borrowing availability of $401,000.  

The Company's mortgage indebtedness requires the Company to make monthly
payments of $3,585 for  both principal and interest and to make a balloon
payment on November 1, 2000.  The mortgage bears interest at one and one-half
percent over prime.  The Company has classified its total mortgage liability as
current because the mortgage agreement is cross-collateralized and
cross-defaulted with the line of credit, which is a secured master demand note.

In the event the lending bank believes that the prospect of payment of the
Company's indebtedness under the line of credit is impaired, the lending bank
is permitted under the agreement governing the line of credit to declare such
indebtedness due and payable.  The lending bank has indicated that it may limit
the amount which the Company is permitted to borrow under the line of credit in
the absence of continued improvement in the Company's business prospects or
progress toward the acquisition of a significant amount of equity capital.  If
the Company is unable to borrow





                                        
<PAGE>   10


Page 10


amounts necessary to fund its operations or is required by the bank to repay
the line of credit, its financial position would be materially and adversely
affected and the Company may have no choice but to cease operations if other
sources of capital are not available.  Moreover, the Company must significantly
increase its backlog during fiscal 1998 in order to generate sufficient cash
flow to sustain its operations.  See "New Orders and Backlog".

In order to provide additional working capital and retire current debt, the
Company is attempting to sell its building and lease back a portion of the
facility from the new owner.  There can be no assurance that the building can
be sold at a price acceptable to the Company or that an acceptable leaseback
agreement can be negotiated.  If the Company must relocate, management is
confident that a suitable facility can be found and that the Company's business
will not be materially disrupted.  The sale of the building is expected to
result in the termination of the existing line of credit.  Management believes
that a new line of credit supported by receivables and other assets of the
Company can be negotiated with the current bank lender, or a substitute bank,
which will be adequate to support the Company's working capital needs, provided
that the Company's backlog increases significantly over the current level.  The
Company also can negotiate a line of credit secured by the irrevocable letters
of credit received on large orders from international customers.  However, any
new line of credit is likely to permit substantially less borrowing than the
current line of credit.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to acquire a replacement line of credit at all or that the level of
borrowing permitted under any replacement line of credit will be adequate for
the Company's working capital needs.

The Company believes that the Merger with STR will provide the Company with
additional equity capital and related technological and marketing capabilities
and will have a positive effect on the Company's short and long term liquidity.
The closing of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of various conditions,
including the approval of the Merger by the shareholders of STR and approval by
the Company's stockholders of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation
to permit the issuance of shares pursuant to the Merger.  As a result, there
can be no assurance that the Merger will be consummated.  See "Merger" for a
description of the proposed Merger.  

Working capital decreased to a deficit of $88,000 at  January 31, 1998
from a surplus of  $268,000 at  July 31, 1997, due primarily to the decreased
revenue and earnings for the first half. Current assets increased by
approximately  $75,000 due primarily to an increase in receivables at the end of
the second quarter.

Cash used by operating activities was $392,000 during the first half of fiscal
1998 as compared to cash provided of $556,000 in the first half of fiscal 1997,
due primarily to the $211,000 increase in accounts receivable and the $152,000
reduction in accounts payable and accrued expenses.  The Company expects
continued investment for capital expenditures, primarily for equipment and
software relating to the Company's growth plan during the remainder of fiscal
1998, but has not entered into any material commitments.  Due to its current
financial position, the Company intends to reduce internal research and
development expenses and to keep marketing and other administrative costs to a
minimum until its financial condition improves significantly.

YEAR 2000 ASSESSMENT

The Company is unable to assess whether the Year 2000  computing problems will
have a material  impact on its business operations since it is still in the
process of  investigating the problem with outside consultants.
