PR Newswire (US)
TEL AVIV, Israel, April 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Detex Security
Systems, Inc. (OTC:DXSC), a company that specializes in developing
state-of-the-art security solutions, today announced that the
Company has begun the reengineering and development of the second
generation of its Milliscope technology. Detex intends to develop
and convert its newly acquired Milliscope prototype into a fully
functioning explosives screening device to be manufactured and
distributed globally. The new prototype is expected to be
demonstrated by the Company in October 2006. The Next Generation
Milliscope will have the ability to detect contraband and plastic
explosives using dual sensors for increased sensitivity that will
greatly reduce false alarms and ensure extreme accuracy. The
Milliscope, upon its completion, will have the capacity to serve as
a standalone screening solution as well as a supplemental security
device used to reinforce other security measures. Radu Cosmin,
Detex's Chief Technology Officer, commented, "We are very excited
to be moving forward with the Milliscope's development. The first
generation prototype demonstrated that the Milliscope technology
can detect dangerous plastic and other types of explosives. With
the second generation prototype, we are incorporating specific
modifications and enhancements and expect to move much closer to a
device that can be mass-manufactured and used with only limited
training." The Milliscope uses proprietary millimetric wave
technology to rapidly and accurately detect plastic explosives such
as Semtex and C-4, conventional explosives such as TNT, and other
contraband such as metal and non-metal weapons and illegal drugs.
Detex Security plans to market and distribute this portable
state-of-the-art device as a detecting solution designed to provide
security in public and private facilities such as airports,
government buildings, schools, corporate offices and border
checkpoints. For more information about Detex Security Systems,
