Type of System:

iVACS® - Under Vehicle Scanning System (UVSS)

Location: USA
Description:

A large secured US Government agency is using Stratech’s iVACS® - intelligent vehicle access control system - to scan all the vehicles’ undercarriages that are entering its secured premise.

This secured site, which has more than 1,000 employees, is a busy place where vehicles in all sizes from a small sedan car to large container trucks and trailers (64 feet) enter the secured premise regularly. Previously, vehicle inspection took a long time as security personnel used a manual inspection mode by using an inspection mirror to screen the undercarriage. This is a challenging process as it is time consuming and tedious to scan a 64 feet trailer undercarriage thoroughly. Human frailties such as the screener's alertness, training and environmental conditions hinders the vehicle screening process, hence not ensuring a safe and thorough check.

To overcome these challenges, the secured site evaluated iVACS® and found it to be a suitable solution to replace their manual inspection system. They were impressed with its capabilities and service.

An embedded version of iVACS® is now being deployed in two of their lanes. The security officers are very pleased with the performance as it offers iVACS® following benefits:

- Unsuppressed image quality – Capturing a photo like image presenting the entire undercarriage into a single view

  • Automated Foreign Object Detection – Ability to identify abnormality such as foreign object (bombs), modifications done to the undercarriage
  • Speeds up the whole inspection process – Capture the entire undercarriage (from cars to trailers) within a few seconds. Allow security officers to make rapid decision on allowing vehicles to enter the premises
