SPIE Defense & Security Symposium shatters attendance records
April 8, 2005, Orlando, FL--A wrap-up release for the Defense & Security Symposium & Exhibition by its sponsor, the International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE), announced that total attendance increased 11% from last year to more than 5400 delegates, and the exhibition grew by some 13% to over 330 exhibitors.

SPIE attributes the enthusiasm shown by technical attendees and exhibitors not only to the health of the defense and security industry, but also to the robust technical program featured at the conference.
