View Systems Scans Guests at a Chinese Event

By Raju Shanbhag, TMCnet Contributor


Scanning guests at major events for security reasons can be tricky for the organizers. While the security aspect cannot be overlooked, the organizers should also take care not to embarrass the guests by making them wait for too long.
 
Many companies are taking a technological route to tackle this issue. Recently, the “Charm of Macao: 10 Year Celebration of Macao’s Return to China,” event reportedly employed View Systems technology to scan the guests at the event.

 
The company used its ViewScan product to scan the guests at the event. ViewScan is a walkthrough concealed weapons detector that uses advanced magnetics technology to visually locate threat objects on its video image.
 
View’s international dealer, Shanghai Zhongbao Security Business Consulting Co., Ltd., had a total of 50 ViewScans last year. The firm took delivery of 20 of the 50 portals some time ago, and placed a few at the Macao Police Bureau. During this trip, the executives of View Systems delivered two additional units, the company said.
 
“The ViewScan units performed flawlessly,” Gunther Than, CEO of View Systems, said. “The utilization of the ViewScan units was authorized personally by the Chief Executive of Macao. The celebration drew intensive media coverage and was broadcast on Chinese television. I was pleased and proud to be a part of this momentous and revered celebration. We plan to post photographs from the event on our web site.”
 
Organized by the Macao SAR Government Informational Bureau and the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macao SAR Government, The Charm of Macao 10 Year Anniversary Celebration was presented by the Office of Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan Affairs, Ministry of Culture and P.R. China.
 
Recently, the company’s exclusive international dealer and business partner Belcom reported a confirmed ViewScan purchase order from the corporate sector. The contract comes from MphasiS, a Hewlett Packard Company based in Bangalore, India. Belcom’s authorized reseller in India, PMG (News - Alert) Systems will handle the project. Belcom, along with PMG Systems, introduced the ViewScan Concealed Weapons Detector to the Indian marketplace in August 2009.
