May 26, 2010 Reveal Imaging Technologies, Inc. Selected to Provide Counter-Terrorism Security at World Expo in Shanghai China
Reveal CT-80 systems have been deployed at Shanghai International Airport
Bedford, Mass., May 26, 2010 — Reveal Imaging Technologies, Inc., a developer of industry-leading threat detection solutions, today announced that its Reveal CT-80 Explosives Detection Systems (EDS) have been deployed by the Chinese Government and Shanghai Airport Authority for World Expo 2010 security. The Expo began on May 1, 2010 and will run through October 31, 2010 in Shanghai, China and is expected to generate the largest number of visitors in the history of the world's fairs.
The Reveal CT-80 is certified by the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (CAAC) for EDS deployment in Chinese airports. Reveal provides more than half of the TSA-certified EDS to China. With the rapid growth of its economy, enhancing airport security has become a priority for the Chinese Government. Increasing tourism will further necessitate an upgrade of security technology at existing major airports to improve safety and efficiency.
“We are pleased to partner with the Chinese Government in their efforts to combat global terrorism and safeguard its citizens and visitors,” said Michael Ellenbogen, president and CEO, Reveal. “Every day, Reveal’s automated explosives detection technology is used to protect millions of airline passengers worldwide.”
The Reveal CT-80 provided security at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and in high threat airports in Xinjiang and Tibet. These systems utilize the company’s breakthrough, dual-energy CT technology which, upon introduction, significantly reduced the size, cost and weight of certified EDS systems. The Reveal CT-80 easily integrates into existing facilities, eliminating the need for expensive reconstruction while minimizing installation costs. Reveal systems can be configured to support both in-line and stand-alone applications.
