Designed
Security, Inc. and Newton Security, Inc. to develop
new
sensing technology for Optical Turnstiles
Bastrop,
TX and Seattle,
WA- Designed Security, Inc. (DSI), a leading manufacturer
and provider of access management solutions and
Newton Security, Inc., the global leader in the
supply of machine vision single person detection systems, announced today
an exclusive development agreement which
will change the face of traditional Optical Turnstiles.
Under this agreement Newton
will modify its patent pending T-DAR®
3-D stereo camera tailgate and piggybacking
technology to integrate with DSI’s Optical Turnstile
product line, thus insuring that DSI remains the
technology leader in Optical Turnstiles.
“The new DSI Optical Turnstile system using overhead
3-D camera sensing will be designed to take the
powerful T-DAR® , Tailgate Detection
and Recording technology and combine it with the
proven DSI Optical Turnstiles to create the most
foolproof system in the industry” said DSI Vice
President and Operations Manager Mark Crandall.
“We are very pleased to have Newton
as a partner and I anticipate that our product
fitted with T-DAR® technology will
revolutionize the Optical Turnstile market.”
This new DSI Optical Turnstile, designed to be
used in public/private lobby entry control applications,
will improve tailgating and piggybacking detection
while allowing for traditionally troublesome items
like carts and luggage to pass through undetected.
In addition, for the first time it will be possible
to allow handicap access though optical turnstiles
with full tailgate/piggybacking prevention. The
agreement between DSI and Newton
provides for DSI to be the excusive supplier of
the T-DAR® technology for Optical
Turnstiles in North America.
“We are very excited to be able to team up with
the industry technology leader DSI and to be able
to combine our world leading technology with their
state of the art Optical Turnstiles” said John
W. Bramblet, President and CEO of Newton Security.
Bramblet went on to say “This new Optical Turnstile
will be able to provide positive tailgate and
piggyback detection even with the presence of
luggage, carts and wheelchairs, thus makings its
performance head and shoulders above any current
Optical Turnstile.”
