Discovery Technology® - next generation isotope identification in RadSeeker.
Symetrica specializes in the detection and identification of radioisotopes for Security Applications. We work with prime contractors and government agencies to design, develop, test and deploy detection equipment for use by law enforcement personnel, customs officers, the emergency services, military personnel and first responders.
Symetrica systems deliver un-rivalled performance through the use of patented, proprietary detection technology. Discovery Technology® isotope detection and identification technology is included in systems designed for Homeland Security and marketed worldwide. Discovery Technology® in the RadSeeker handheld isotope identification system has passed extensive U.S government testing and has been procured for deployment.
Following this success Symetrica has launched a Radiation Portal Monitor (RPM) range designed to improve cargo screening efficiency. The Discovery RPM is designed for Primary Screening Applications and classifies Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material in containerized cargo. The Deep Discovery RPM provides advanced isotope identification capabilities for primary and secondary screening applications. These RPMs, entered into the Illicit Trafficking Radiation Assessment Program (ITRAP+10), can deliver vast operational savings through nuisance alarm reduction and improved isotope identification accuracy.
Our RPM range takes advantage of our; scalable range of Helium-3 free neutron detection system, new spectroscopic-PVT detection systems, advanced crystal spectrometers and a full set of detection and identification algorithms. These unique detection systems provide new capabilities across multiple applications in cargo and airport security screening, mass transit and event management.
Symetrica's new Discovery RPM with >75% nuisance alarm reduction, an ideal BSTC technology pilot.
