Flexpoint Sensor Systems Increases Awareness at International Safety Summit

DRAPER, Utah--Feb. 2, 20054, 2005--Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:FLXT) today announced executives have returned from the International Summit on Automotive Safety held February 16th & 17th in Amsterdam, more convinced they will secure contracts for their Pedestrian Impact Detection System in Europe.

The International Summit on Automotive Safety focused on reducing the number of fatalities to pedestrians and bicyclists in automotive accidents. Statistics released during the conference showed the percentage of fatalities involving a pedestrian or bicyclist have risen to approximately 10% in the United States, 30% in Europe, and an astounding 80% in China. These figures have forced regulators and government officials to mandate new guidelines on the automotive industry. Flexpoint believes these mandates will drive demand for their Bend Sensor(R) technology and the Pedestrian Impact Detection System.

"This Summit has been more effective in reaching our target audience than we could have ever imagined. I was truly overwhelmed by the level of interest we received from suppliers and manufacturers," stated Chairman John Sindt. "We now have a greater understanding of the need for this technology, the goals of regulators, and what actions manufacturers have done to address this epidemic. In our opinion the industry is not fully prepared for the mandated changes, and would greatly benefit from the Bend Sensor(R) technology."

CEO Clark Mower commented, "As referenced in today's Wall Street Journal article titled Reinventing the Wheel, by Raymund Flandez, section D5, Pedestrian Impact Detection is not only a problem in Europe but fast becoming a global crisis. We know the Bend Sensor(R) technology is a superior solution for impact detection and we are currently in negotiations both internationally and domestically for this product."

Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. has developed and patented the Bend Sensor(R) technology. The Bend Sensor(R) is a technological breakthrough that offers a superior solution for applications that require accurate measurement and sensing of deflection, acceleration and range of motion. Global market opportunities include automotive, medical, industrial controls, government, health and fitness, security, computer, aerospace, transportation and consumer products.
