FAQ

WHAT IS PASSIVE SCANNING TECHNOLOGY™?

Our patented Passive Scanning Technology™, (US Patent 7408461), is a non-invasive, advanced body scanner. It works by detecting subtle changes in the Earth's magnetic field caused by the presence of weapons. The latest technology features Elevated Body Temperature detection, which scans people's temperature with zero contact. The Passive Portal™ is a crucial tool in the fight against infectious disease spread.

WHY USE PASSIVE SCANNING?

Most security protocols incorporate metal detectors, which could be characterized as "active scanning". By doing so, they release potentially harmful radiation. Repeated exposure, as might be experienced by people who frequent a certain building, may cause lasting damage to our bodies. Instead of emitting radiation, the Passive Portal™ accepts inputs from the world by reading variations in the Earth's magnetic field associated with the presence of ferro-magnetic metals, metals commonly used in weapons. This allows it to alert security staff when firearms, knives, and other weapons are brought into the building.

WHAT ARE THE NEW HORIZONS IN SCANNING TECHNOLOGY?

The Passive Portal™ represents a major breakthrough in weapons detection technology. While traditional metal detectors have to emit radiation to detect weapons -and sometimes don't detect them quickly or effectively- our Passive Scanning Technology™ is able to instantly and accurately detect weapons or elevated body temperature. No matter what type of threat you're scanning for, our Passive Scanning Technology™ is a zero-radiation technology, and therefore the healthier and more efficient choice. Simply put, there is no potential for cancer or other inherent health risks associated with ionizing radiation, and the Passive Portal™ is able to mitigate the risk of infectious disease spread as well.

WHAT MAKES OUR SCANNERS SPECIAL?

Our Passive Scanning Technology™ is zero-radiation and highly efficient, allowing you to implement a top-level security protocol while minimizing risk to patrons of the building. They're flexible and lightweight, yet powerful enough to handle thousands of scans throughout the course of an event or work session. Plus, they're able to accurately detect the presence of weapons, no matter how small, as well as elevated body temperature that could indicate a source of contagion.

WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE?

We take a custom approach to our clients, which range from schools to malls, and houses of worship. Many houses of worship are eligible for grants to help you purchase your Passive Scanning Technology™ products. We'll work closely with you to procure this helpful funding and we'll partner with you to help navigate your security protocol.
