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 />
