Brijot Imaging Systems has announced the world's first commercial camera for detecting hidden weapons in real time, the Brijot Imaging Systems Weapons Detection System (BIS-WOS Prime). The system uses passive millimeter wave sensor technology developed by Lockheed Martin. Brijot holds an exclusive license to use this technology for commercial applications. This camera system will detect guns, knives or bombs made of metal, plastic or composite materials. This is a millimeter wave camera combined with a video camera and software with a special algorithm, capable of connecting with other safety facilities, such as door entry mechanisms, video surveillance systems and complex security networks for surveillance. The output is a real-time video, without privacy issues, with visual identification of the location of a suspicious item on a person's body and notification via an electronic alarm. The system is able to simultaneously locate up to 50 alerts. The camera system is completely passive, meaning that there are no harmful rays, and its range is up to 14 meters with lens options. With the introduction of BIS-WDS Prime, an immediate security assessment is possible. The subject does not have to stand still or cooperate. The system is activated continuously, and checks all people within its range, eliminating the need to create profiles based on race. BIS-WDS Prime will be presented for the first time at the International Security Conference West to be held April 6-8, 2005 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The retail price according to the manufacturer's offer is 860 thousand dollars.
Four-star general Barry McCaffrey serves as a consultant for Bridget Imaging Systems. "It is very fitting that the first real development in protecting the public from dangerous weapons comes from our country. The device supports this nation's efforts to make the world a safer place. I am very pleased that Bridget brings our advantages in technology and product development to the commercial and private sectors of the world." At the time of his retirement, General McCaffrey was the most decorated general in the United States Army. He served as the commander of the 24th Motorized Infantry Brigade in Operation "Desert Storm", then was promoted to the rank of Major General and served as Colin Powell's deputy, and assisted the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as an advisor to the US Secretary of State. The Pentagon, Congress and the media regularly consult with General McCaffrey on security issues, threat analysis, drug smuggling and international issues. General McCaffrey also maintains current knowledge of trends and developments in the security arena as Distinguished Professor of National Security Studies at West Point.
Says Brian Andrew, President and CEO of Brigout Imaging Systems: "Brigut has been fortunate to have partners like Lockheed Martin as our technology base, and a partner like General McCaffrey for its knowledge base. The combination of these two advantages with the skills of Brijot's team members in developing and manufacturing a product for the commercial sector gives the world an opportunity to enjoy a safer environment."
The millimeter wave component of the BIS-WDS™ Prime system is a radiometer that simulates the millimeter wave "signature" of objects. The signature of the millimeter wave is also known as blackbody radiation, and consists of two properties: emissivity and reflection. Everything in the universe: living, inorganic, natural or man-made, has a millimeter wave signature. The system simulates the millimeter wave signatures, and processes them using the sophisticated algorithms of the system software. The system then compares these images to the guns, knives and assault rifles in its database. These are made of materials such as metals, plastics, composites or ceramic materials. If the system definitely detects a gun, knife or assault rifle, it will display the label of "Sort warning". If the image is not a recognized weapon in its database, but has a significant size and a millimeter wave signature, the system will display a "detection warning" label. These warnings are displayed in real time, 3/10 seconds or less, in a full video image of the man in motion, indicating where that item is.
In order to effectively simulate the differences in the millimeter wave signature passively, that is: without radiating on the person being tested, and so that the device could operate both indoors and outdoors, Bridget had to develop sensors with an unprecedented degree of sensitivity. Bridget Imaging Systems was able to achieve total system-level sensitivity capable of distinguishing differences of one degree on the Kelvin scale in a millimeter wave signature. Other companies estimate that they are able to achieve a sensitivity of one degree on the Kelvin scale at the sensor component level. Brijot Imaging Systems is the first and only one in the world to achieve a sensitivity of one degree on the Kelvin scale at the level of the entire system. This is a significant feature needed to activate my hidden weapons detection system.
Brijot Imaging Systems has developed and integrated into BIS-WDS Prime additional engineering achievements that have not been achieved before. For example, the standard BIS-WDS Prime model uses only 16 sensors to transmit a 182x90 centimeter image at a focal point of 3, 6 or 9 meters, a feat made possible by the incorporation of sophisticated software algorithms that significantly increase image resolution. The BIS-WDS Prime system can also be purchased commercially with a width of about 33 cm, a depth of about 45 cm and a height of about 70 cm, small enough to fix it on the wall or unfold it, in fact, Everywhere.
