SCIENTIFIC STUDIES OF
THE TECNO AO PROTECTIVE EFFECT
The results of these studies demonstrate the efficacy of the
protection provided by the Tecno AO antenna against chronic
biological stress from electromagnetic video sources.
This protection results in an overall improvement in stress
resistance (15%) with an increase in work performance (concentration,
alertness, rapidity) and a remarkable rise in comfort as measured
by work complaints related to VDU work. The protective effect is
measured at three levels : safety, comfort, and efficiency.

A report on a Double Blind Crossover field trial of the
effectiveness of the Tecno AO Antenna device conducted at The
Southampton an SW Hants Health Authority Head Office by Professor
D. Croome of Reading University and Mr John Jukes an Ergonomic
& Environmental Consultant. June 1999.
A study completed under the supervision of Prof. D. Croome of

- A FIVE YEAR STUDY IN ANIMAL
IMMUNOLOGY AND NEURO-ENDOCRINOLOGY (1993/1997) on
the process of chronic biological stress. The results
show that Tecno AO protects the life of embryos exposed
to screen radiation and, in animals, fully restores
immune and hormonal systems, previously totally inhibited
due to screen exposure (Bastide et al.,
University of Montpellier 1, France.)
- A PSYCHOTECHNICAL STUDY (1995/1996)
with STRESS TEST (Stroop Color Ward Test) conducted at
job sites under the supervision of the Occupational
Medicine (Cochin Hospital, Paris). Evaluation of the
resistance to stress and work performance. The results
show a statistical improvement in performance of 13% in
rapidity, 9% in alertness, and 23% in concentration, as
well as a mean increase of 15% in overall resistance to
stress in individuals who had a Tecno AO antenna secured
to their computer for a month (up to 30% increase in
their resistance to stress for those most stressed at
baseline).
- Simultaneously, a significant improvement has been
reported in comfort among individuals suffering from
clinical signs of video stress such as ocular pain, head
and back aches, anxiety, irritability, hostility,
insomnia, loss of memory, etc.

"Investigating the psychological effect of Tecno AO
antenna on VDU users" by B. Hayes, K. Molloy under
the supervision of Prof. A. Canavon, The Institute for
Health Services Research, University of Luton, England.
This single blind study with 100 VDU users for 2 weeks
using MOOD Test concludes: Tecno AO antenna may not only
reduce physiological strain in VDU users, but may also
affect their psychological states, with evidence of
immediate psychological benefits : more arousal (difference
of 45. 8%) and less distress (difference of 36.6%)
between the experimental protected group (50) and the
controls (50 VDU users without the protection).
