LowCam under-vehicle inspection systems (UVIS)<br />

Although there are others within our realm of manufacturing,<br />

our LowCam under-vehicle inspection systems<br />

(UVIS) are very unique in their approach to inspecting<br />

the undercarriage of incoming and outgoing vehicles.<br />

Basically, just as an overview, our UVIS technology<br />

replaces the mirrors that are commonly used when circling<br />

a vehicle and looking at the undercarriage. Instead<br />

we provide a camera system (much like CCTV) that a<br />

vehicle simply drives over, then the undercarriage image<br />

is instantly displayed on a monitor in a central control<br />

room or in a safe stand-off location for a thorough, yet<br />

quick, inspection. While other solutions available on the<br />

market offer only a black and white static, single image<br />

(imagine a photocopy), the LowCam UVIS offers not<br />

only the single image viewing, but also full-color, real-<br />

time video so that the inspecting operator can view the<br />

vehicle’s undercarriage using play, pause, zoom, fastforward<br />

and rewind - much like a CCTV camera allows<br />

in other security operations. All vehicle data - including<br />

license plate information and/or driver image - gathered<br />

by the LowCam UVIS is stored in a centralized database<br />

for future review. All facilities can easily pull historical<br />

information to inquire on who is entering or leaving<br />

their facility, and if any security measures or breaches<br />

were detected. Besides capturing license plate and<br />

driver information, the most advanced UVIS are now<br />

equipped with a video-analytical tool known as “Foreign<br />

object Detection”. This software scans quickly the approaching<br />

vehicle’s undercarriage for abnormal colors,<br />

sizes/shapes of objects and variations made to the<br />
