IRVINE, Calif., March 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ubiquity, Inc. (OTCQB: UBIQ) ("Ubiquity" or the "Company"), a technology development and licensing company that holds an extensive portfolio of patents across multiple technology market verticals, announced today that the Company has completed the acquisition of Coversant, Inc. ("Coversant") on March 19, 2015.  Coversant's CEO and board member, Dale Okuno, will join Ubiquity's board of directors, and their management team will be integrated into Ubiquity's existing corporate structure.

Coversant is a developer of an "Internet of Things Service Bus" (IoT-SB) which can securely and efficiently connect devices, sensors, and actuators to users, applications and databases for data analysis and process control.

"We are excited to complete the acquisition of Coversant and look forward to leveraging Dale Okuno's software development experience and integrating the rest of the Coversant team into Ubiquity. In addition to connecting homes, businesses, automobiles, and other devices, the proliferation of wearable tech products is creating a vast array of potential applications ideally suited to Coversant's highly secure IOT Service Bus," said Ubiquity CEO Chris Carmichael.

"Coversant's technology perfectly complements Ubiquity's patented and patent pending compression technology which enables Ubiquity's software to intelligently discern objects of interest; clean the edges, distinguish vehicles, distinguishing marks and other objects; and continuously track positions for all moving and stationary targets within the video scene all with a high level of accuracy all while being geo-fenced and mapped," said Ubiquity's Co-Chairman Nick Mitsakos.

Mitsakos added, "Coversant's technology along with Ubiquity's Real-time video intelligence software which transforms camera surveillance networks and mobile devices into intelligent and effective detection and alert systems, enabling real-time responses to events as they emerge live or for forensic analysis."

"Now that the merger is complete we look forward to adding our infrastructure and focus on data security to Ubiquity's already impressive IP and products base. Coversant's technology should create a value added service to what Ubiquity has created as well as create revenue opportunities in other verticals," said Coversant CEO Dale Okuno.
