Clantect-en

ClanTect’s Motion Detection Technology is used to detect hidden human presence in vehicles. It is most commonly used to search the interior of larger vehicles (trucks, containers, trailers, buses, caravans, tankers, cement mixers, etc.) where there is more space and room to hide.

The structures of larger vehicles are primarily composed of steel and aluminum alloys. These metallic frames make it extremely difficult to effectively use scanning technologies such as x-rays to detect hidden entities inside the vehicles.

There is increasing pressure on large vehicles to move faster through checkpoints, making it impractical and almost impossible to conduct a thorough search of the vehicle’s interior. For example, it can take 2 or 3 personnel 30-45 minutes to empty a trailer of its contents (and may require lifting equipment such as forklifts) to conduct a thorough search, and another 15-30 minutes to safely load the contents back onto the truck. In busy areas such as ports and rail freight terminals and border crossings, there will be hundreds of vehicles waiting in line to be checked and continue on their journey. Therefore, there is neither the time nor the manpower to effectively search large vehicles manually.

In addition, the concealment of fugitives inside vehicles is becoming increasingly sophisticated. There are new techniques and intelligence used by criminal organizations and terrorist groups to organize the concealment and transportation of human ‘cargo’. In parallel, fugitives, especially refugees fleeing armed conflicts and oppressive regimes, are taking great risks to conceal themselves in desperate and potentially life-threatening situations.

ClanTect offers a fast, easy-to-use and, above all, reliable and accurate solution. 

High Accuracy

ClanTect uses advanced algorithms, signal processing and system logic to eliminate any background noise (such as vibration from passing traffic). This ensures that readings are interpreted correctly. So even the slightest noise or vibration emitted from the vehicle, such as an excited heartbeat, will be detected. ClanTect’s top-performing accuracy has been confirmed by independent authorities.

Ruggedized Durable Equipment

It is designed for use in “harsh” outdoor conditions, for example, it has a protective metallic frame and MIL-Spec connectors.

Fast Turnaround Times

A complete “electronic test” of a vehicle can be completed in just about one minute. As a result, the daily operations of border controls and gate stations and, in particular, traffic flow are not negatively affected.

Ease of Use and Operation

The sensors are quickly and easily installed on the exterior of the vehicle and the system automatically performs an “electronic search” of the vehicle without any further operator intervention. The Computer Terminal is menu-driven and intuitive, with very little data entry: it is automatic from start to finish.

Wireless

This option allows the sensors to operate without cables, thus eliminating the need to install and maintain long cables and cable reels, especially important for outdoor and temporary searches. The wireless connection is secure and has a range of up to 60 meters. These sensors are powered by 3 x standard rechargeable AAA batteries, providing full and continuous wireless operation without access to mains power.

Outdoors

The system can operate effectively outdoors when used in conjunction with the ClanTect Wind Frame. This enables the system to eliminate the effects of vibrations caused by wind excitation. This is crucial for search operations without closed vehicle shelters.

Battery Power

The Battery Pack provides full operation without access to mains power. The Battery Pack provides power for over 10 hours of operation. The rechargeable 26V batteries can be swapped on the fly, allowing 24 x 7 continuous operation without mains power, which is crucial for outdoor search operations.

Multi-Tool Format Configuration

The system can be used for different heavy duty vehicles: trucks, roll-on/roll-off containers, buses, cement mixers, tankers, etc.

Automatic Data Capture and Update

The results of the electronic search are captured and stored automatically, meaning no manual input or intervention is required. Fast, Simple and ready for the next vehicle.

Vehicle Automatic Plate Recognition

All vehicle license plates are automatically and instantly recorded in the system and stored with electronic search results. This provides critical data for operational reports (vehicle tracking) and inspection purposes.

ClanConnect: Remote Data Management and Communication

All ClanTect terminals can transmit data to and from central office organisations over secure 4G networks, both national and international. This means that up-to-date information is quickly and easily consolidated across central office hosts. It also allows HQ to remotely access all ClanTect Terminals for operational support and fault diagnosis.

Multi-Vehicle Scanning

The ClanTect system can provide multi-vehicle scanning from a single terminal, which is particularly useful for larger transport inspection bays that provide higher throughput.

Multi-Language Feature

The system is available in many languages ​​and is already used in many countries.

Sensor Health Check and Verification

The ClanTect system provides an automatic sensor health check with built-in alarm and audit reports. This ensures that sensors are working correctly while highlighting any irregularities.

Sensor Test Station (GTS) module

This is an additional terminal that manages the lifecycle of ClanTect sensors and cable components to ensure optimum accuracy is maintained. This performs tests on the accuracy and efficiency of the sensors and provides management information data, highlighting any significant performance issues.

CE Certified

The ClanTect system has the CE Certificate, which is an important quality assurance.
