Garrett Metal Detectors, a Texas-based company, has begun accepting orders for its new SecureFlow Kiosk, according to a press release. This tablet-based accessory is designed to enhance the user interface of Garrett Paragon walk-through metal detectors, aiming to improve both security and throughput at checkpoints.
The SecureFlow Kiosk connects to the Paragon detector via a wired ethernet connection, providing constant access to recent alarm information, current walkthrough settings and a live view of the detector’s zone indication and ready lights. Garrett states that the kiosk will improve secondary screening efficiency and reduce staff fatigue and the impact of attention lapses.
«In recent years there has been a lack of progress in our industry in improving the tools and the processes of secondary screening, which is the check that comes after the primary screening platform signals an alarm,» Steve Novakovich, CEO of Garrett, said in the release. «With the SecureFlow Kiosk, the screener doesn’t have to observe the zone lights at the time of alarm or remember the location of the alarm in order to quickly and efficiently identify and remove contraband and threat objects.»
The SecureFlow Kiosk is manufactured at Garrett’s Garland, Texas, facility.
