Board Changes


Transense Technologies PLC ('Transense' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce
the appointment of Jon Pither as a Non-executive Director with immediate effect.

Jon Pither (aged 58) was Chief Executive of Amari plc for twenty years before it
was sold to Glynwed in 1988.  He is currently a Non-executive Director of The
AiM Trust plc and The AiM VCT plc and The Alumasc Group plc as well as a number
of other companies.  Further details of Jon Pither's directorships are set out
in an appendix to this announcement.

Transense also announces that Stephen Clark, Director of Legal Affairs, will be
leaving the Company with immediate effect to pursue other interests.

Jim Perry, Chief Executive Officer of Transense, commented:

'I am delighted to welcome Jon Pither to Transense.  He brings with him
considerable City and industry experience and will provide additional strength
and depth to the Transense Board.

'Stephen Clark has performed an important role for the Company over the last
eighteen months.  However, the Company now has enough in-house legal expertise,
which coupled with the use of external advisers, means it no longer requires a
dedicated specialist.'
