AMSTERDAM - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Reveal Imaging Technologies, Inc., a developer of industry-leading
threat detection solutions, today unveiled ArrayCT , a revolutionary
x-ray detection system for screening baggage at the checkpoint. The
world's first demonstration of the system is being provided in Reveal
Booth #A26 at TranSec World Expo.
Unlike today's static x-ray checkpoints, which capture only two images
of a stationary bag, Reveal ArrayCT uses multi-axis image acquisition
and Array Motion Imaging to scan moving bags from multiple angles
simultaneously. The resulting image enables the operator to identify
threat objects by their shape, placement, and most importantly, relative
motion. This capability, combined with ArrayCT's best-in-class material
classification algorithms, improves operator effectiveness and results
in greater efficiency. ArrayCT also can detect the multiple threats of
liquids, explosives and laptops simultaneously without compromising
security.
"As threats continue to evolve rapidly, static x-ray systems and their
operators are being pushed to their limits, because speed and accuracy
are often mutually exclusive," said Michael Ellenbogen, president and
CEO, Reveal. "ArrayCT, on the other hand, provides an unmatched level of
accuracy while keeping the checkpoint moving. As a result, ArrayCT sets
a whole new standard in checkpoint security."
ArrayCT is fully compatible with existing and planned checkpoint
operations, making it an ideal choice for airport security checkpoints,
border crossings, courthouses, police stations, office buildings,
government facilities, military bases, critical infrastructure
facilities and other public venues. In addition, ArrayCT complies with
the requirements of leading international security standards
organizations.
"We are committed to delivering not only the highest level of
innovation, but practical solutions as well," said Ellenbogen. "We
designed ArrayCT with an end goal in mind - to quickly move people
through the checkpoint while providing the highest level of security.
The result is a system that delivers the most cost-effective checkpoint
solution available today."
TranSec World Expo, being held 3-4 June 2009 in Amsterdam, Netherlands,
is the premier event in the transportation security calendar with a
specific focus on aviation and maritime security. Go to www.transec.com
