| Iscon1000 uses a proprietary infrared image analysis technology. Because the human body naturally radiates heat, Iscon1000 scans for temperature differences on the body’s surface, or for temperature imbalances between the body, clothes and any hidden objects. Because all objects radiate heat and resist temperature change differently, Iscon1000’s image analysis technology is capable of detecting minute temperature differences of hidden objects regardless of the organic or inorganic nature of the substance. Once the presence of an object is detected, the subject may be held for further screening.
With infrared technology, temperatures a represented in shades. Cooler objects are black. Warmer objects are white. And, infrared scanning technology is completely passive. Unlike other systems, it applies no external radiation (other than heat). It simply analyzes the surface of the body for temperature differences.
Iscon1000 is designed perform the function of a pat-down, in a less invasive, more expedient way. Because the system is designed to screen subjects for multiple threats it maximizes throughput and minimizes cost per transaction.
