RDSC is a passive radiation detection system that integrates with a standard straddle carrier and uses secondary scans to resolve alarms without the need to open cargo containers.
DNI has close working relationships with a number of national laboratories and currently has a significant contract with a United States government agency.
“We are pleased to announce the purchase of the Albuquerque, N.M.-based DNI,” said Thomas M. Ripp, president of L-3 Security & Detection Systems. “With the DNI acquisition L-3 now offers highly advanced radiation detection in a standalone application or as an integrated part of our cargo solutions.”
L-3 SDS is an experienced full-service system integrator with more than a decade of in-depth cargo experience. The addition of DNI’s innovative technology for detecting special nuclear materials (SNM) complements its existing portfolio of cargo inspection platforms which includes the CX-Mobile™ G3, CX-Pallet™, CX-Portal™ and CX-Gantry™. L-3 SDS’ ClearView™ Workstation seamlessly integrates radiation data with inputs from multiple X-ray systems of any type with other sensors such as license plate readers, container number readers and manifest data. Operators are presented with a single interface that increases the probability of detecting a wide range of threats.
