Advanced Security & Contraband Detection Systems | Muon Tomography Technology

We specialize in advanced security solutions using Muon Tomography technology. Our Multi-Mode Passive Detection System (MMPDS Gen 3) is a completely passive and automated scanning system that detects and identifies radiological threats and contraband. Our system exceeds the capabilities of legacy systems and provides a safer and more efficient scanning process.

Presentation Transcript

  1. A B O U T U S • ADVANCED SECURITY AND CONTRABAND DETECTION SYSTEMS • Headquartered in San Diego, CA. and with additional offices in Washington, DC. • Cutting-edge science, hardware and software development, systems integration and manufacturing to improve the safety and security of the global community. • Technology invented by physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy Los Alamos National Laboratory which lead to development of our Multi-Mode Passive Detection System (MMPDS Gen3) that we produce today • Completely passive, safe, effective and automated scanning system for quickly detecting, locating and identifying radiological and nuclear threats and other contraband.

  2. O U R T E C H N O L O G Y-MUON TOMOGRAPHY • High energy protons interact with the Earth’s atmosphere to produce a continuous muon and electron flux. • Muons are highly penetrating, and scatter based on atomic number and nuclear density of the material with which they have interaction. • Electrons scatter much more readily than muons due to their lower mass and are stopped proportional to the atomic number.

  3. O U R T E C H N O L O G Y-MUON TOMOGRAPHY • Sensors (sealed aluminum drift tubes) detect muons, electrons and gamma radiation. • Orthogonal tube arrays provide 3-dimensional tracking and highly sensitive gamma detection.

  4. T H E R E S U L T-MMPDS GEN 3 SYSTEM • Zero harmful ionizing radiation • A totally passive system with no safety exclusion zone required • Provides automatic detection and material classification • Allows for additional operator visual interpretation of 3-D image • Low cost maintenance • Low operating expenses • High throughput • Can penetrate over 1,000 mm of steel

  5. M A R K E T S & S O L U T I O N S-KEY BENEFITS • MMPDS Gen 3 exceeds far past the detection capabilities of legacy systems existing in scanning the industry • SMART • AUTOMATIC • FAST • EFFECTIVE X – RAY IMAGE MMPDS GEN 3 3D DENSITY MAP

  6. M A R K E T S & S O L U T I O N S • The MMPDS includes a Proprietary Material Signature Library to allow for automatic threat and material of interest notification • MMPDS IS THE ONLY EXISTING SYSTEM capable of passively detecting shielded nuclear material, contraband or anomalies in commerce

  7. M A R K E T S & S O L U T I O N S-WHO ARE OUR CUSTOMERS? • MARITIME PORTS • LAND BORDER CROSSINGS • Ex. • US DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE • US CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION • SINGAPORE MINISTER OF INTERIOR

  8. A P P L I E D D A T A S C I E N C E • MMPDS Gen3 incorporates state of the art artificial intelligence (AI) Deep Learning and Machine Learning Algorithms (MLAs) that improve system performance over time for known materials of interest and provide the operator with an ability to adapt to emerging threats and trends through software updates. Legacy systems (e.g., X-ray) have no such capability.

  9. A S A F E R W O R L D • It is our fundamental belief that our products have the potential to save lives and secure global commerce. • Our product line and vision reflect our commitment to bring innovative security products to customers throughout the world with unmet needs in the areas of nuclear safety and counterterrorism.

  10. K E Y B E N E F I T S SMART– MMPDS Gen3 incorporates state of the art artificial intelligence (AI) Deep Learning and Machine Learning Algorithms (MLAs) that improve system performance over time for known materials of interest and provide the operator with an ability to adapt to emerging threats and trends through software updates. • MMPDS Gen 3 – System Level AI • Utilizes start of the art Deep Learning Convolutional Neural Networks for both Material Classification and Anomaly Detection • Centralized Network – AI • The goal is to have every MMPDS Gen 3 networked (even if air gapped) to send it Anonymized Scan Data back to the Decision Sciences Class 1 / U.S. DoD Certified Data Center for signature and anomaly training on a daily basis Creating the World’s First and ONLY: Fully networked Internet of Things for contraband and Threat Detection - allowing every system to learn from every other one on a daily basis

  11. W H O W E A R E • Company has been incorporated since 2006 • Privately held and privately funded • Product development team growing to ~50 team members • Resources in the areas of Physics, Data Science, Software, Testing, Program Management, Systems Engineering, Quality, Networking • Key development areas • Algorithm development, imaging / visualization, reconstruction, software development, big data, networking, GUI, external integration • Key technologies • TensorFlow, Apache SVN, C++, Python, Kafka, CentOS, Postgres, MySQL, Oracle
