KUALA LUMPUR, July 2 -- Smiths Detection, a detection and security company, has launched iCMORE detection algorithms for lithium batteries and dangerous goods for use by its HI-SCAN 10080 XCT scanner.
According to a statement, this becomes its first explosive-detection system (EDS) to offer these options.
The algorithms enhance the scanner’s detection capabilities by helping identify lithium batteries, inflammable liquids and solids, and compressed and liquefied gases, which can pose a risk should they ignite or explode.
With iCMORE, Smiths Detection can now reliably and accurately detect potentially dangerous lithium batteries, alongside other dangerous goods, across both its conventional X-ray and EDS technologies.
Via automatic object recognition, iCMORE supports image operators by detecting dangerous goods without increasing their workload, as it requires little training and generates very low false-alarm rates.
“The iCMORE modules for both lithium batteries and dangerous goods further enhance the HI-SCAN 10080 XCT, streamlining the hold-baggage and air-cargo screening process without burdening operators,” said Global Director Aviation for Smiths Detection, Richard Thompson.
“Using this technology will not only make aviation safer but can also help prevent costly fines for shipping dangerous goods in a non-compliant way as well as helping safeguard the global supply of goods, which is essential given the need for medical supplies – for example – to be shipped without interruption.”
