Dual-purpose security from 3DX-Ray |

3DX-Ray Ltd has developed a new dual-purpose public x-ray baggage security system for use at events, sports arenas, stadiums and public meetings.
Based on the company’s FlatScan-TPXi portable x-ray system, the FlatScan-POD allows FlatScan-TPXi to be used for baggage scanning in a public area as well as retaining its use as a portable x-ray system.
It is said to be ideal for both checking bags as they are carried in to public events and for emergency use, x-raying suspect bags, cases and parcels that have been left unattended.
The mobile cabinet-style unit can be quickly set up as a security inspection station, and moved to other locations as required.
Once the FlatScan-POD is positioned as required the FlatScan-TPXi system is simply slotted into the unit ready to inspect bags.
The unit is battery operated so its deployment is not limited by access to mains electricity.
If a stray suspect item is found in the vicinity the FlatScan-TPXi unit can quickly be removed from the FlatScan-POD and deployed as a portable x-ray inspection system to investigate the suspicious item without moving it.
A suite of software tools allows the operator to investigate the image and identify potential biological or explosive hazards, complex and ‘dirty’ explosive devices and weapons more easily and accurately.
FlatScan-POD is already deployed in London, which was the first city in the world to protect its bus and rail commuters with this mobile baggage scanner technology.

Small Footprint, Big Significance: Studio City Water Park |

Long known for its fancy casinos, Macau realized within the past decade that it must

attractions, and family-friendly hotels. But the offering that truly stands out with fun
for everyone is Studio City Water Park – Macau’s first stand-alone water park, with all
the water slides and aquatic play structures supplied by WhiteWater. |
