American Innovative Research (A.I.R.) cofounders, David Palmer and Judy Piscione, explain how the impact of the avian flu pandemic originally motivated their company's researching a home option of an isolation and containment unit.

A.I.R. CEO Palmer states that he and Piscione leveraged decades of success in biomedical research and semiconductor clean-room technology to found American Innovative Research Corp. Palmer defines A.I.R. as a health and wellness technology company focused on providing advanced protection against airborne viruses.

A.I.R. COO Piscione explains the I-Con™'s role in today 's H1N1 swine flu pandemic. Piscione describes the I-Con™ as a portable air purification and sterilization product for household, residential facility or institutional use. According to Piscione, their unit was specifically designed to reproduce the same airflow patterns that are used in hospitals and biological research facilities to create either isolation or containment.

American Innovative Research Corp. is a Massachusetts, U.S.A. Company dedicated to the development of advanced technology for use in household and institutional airborne contamination purification and protection.
