DSIC’s passive Discovery® system does not generate any harmful radiation as does x-ray, and is intrinsically safe for the user, the cargo, and any human beings that may be hidden in the cargo.

Key Points: 
  • DSIC’s passive Discovery® system does not generate any harmful radiation as does x-ray, and is intrinsically safe for the user, the cargo, and any human beings that may be hidden in the cargo.
  • Now, in response to customer requirements, Decision Sciences has developed a new and revolutionary algorithm to safely detect human beings hidden inside containers and cargoes.
  • As Kevin Davies, DSIC’s Chief Commercial Officer stated: “This is a real game-changer in the fight against human trafficking globally.
  • As Discovery® is a totally passive system, no safety zone is needed, which significantly reduces the requirements for civil works radiation protection.
