Smiths Detection Launches Upgraded Screening Management Platform

Smiths Detection has launched its upgraded screening management software, Checkpoint.Evoplus, which is designed to streamline security processes by increasing passenger throughput, optimize resources, reduce operating costs and increase security. The software management platform links individual components and sensors that previously couldn’t communicate with each other into an integrated solution, producing operational and supporting new functions such as centralized screening and direct search. Checkpoint.Evoplus also allows suspicious areas of carry-on bags to be marked and classified to focus secondary inspections, and it includes a central dashboard to monitor key performance indicators and share information. It also provides real-time data needed to support instant decisions on resource allocation, identifies bottlenecks in the screening process, and generates historical data and reports required for resource planning and general administration. Smiths Detection says that Checkpoint.Evoplus is vendor agnostic and has an open interface that supports third party devices and technology. The company also says the platform is the first solution for multiplexed image analysis to receive the French STAC certification.
