eXaminer® Algorithm Software Upgrade Reduces False Alarm Rate As Much As 20%

The TSA-certified 65.3 software upgrade for eXaminer 3DX systems enhances explosives detection, operational efficiency and baggage throughput by significantly reducing false alarms and the time and labor required to resolve them.

In real-world conditions, the improved algorithm software has been shown to reduce false alarm rates by 20% on average to unprecedented low levels, assuring a continuous flow of baggage, even at the busiest terminals. Fewer false alarms reduce operational labor costs associated with searching and reviewing alarmed bags.

This simple software upgrade—performed in the field—requires no additional equipment modifications or operator training and is available for in-line eXaminer 3DX systems equipped with version 5.2SP1 software and at least 4GB of memory.

Options

One-meter entry tunnel

The eXaminer’s one-meter wide entrance tunnel simplifies integration with existing baggage handling systems. Any existing eXaminer system – in-line, partially integrated or stand-alone --can be configured with the new, wider tunnel.

  • Skis, golf bags and other extra-long or oversized objects are no problem for the eXaminer's one-meter tunnel. Built to handle baggage up to 100 inches (2.54 m) long, when used with conveyors designed for oversized objects, the eXaminer accepts longer bags than any TSA-certified EDS system.
  • The eXaminer's unique active centering and alignment feature senses bag size and automatically rotates each bag to minimize the potential for jams. If a bag gets held up, the eXaminer's Automatic Jam Recovery feature resolves the jam in less than 30 seconds.
  • Design refinements narrow the space required between bags, boosting the eXaminer's throughput to more than 600 bags an hour when used as part of an integrated in-line system.

Networking

Flexible networking options link multiple eXaminer systems of any configuration (SX, 3DXand XLB) and their respective viewing systems and search workstations over a secure network, enabling airports to realize the lowest possible staffing and operating costs.
