1. BACKGROUND

Contraband in correctional facilities includes illegal items, such as drugs and weapons, or items prohibited in the area being monitored, such as cell phones. Prison staff needs to be able to detect and confiscate contraband quickly to prevent drug abuse, violence and the commission of further crimes. Drugs and weapons pose a particular risk in prison environments, where there is a high potential for violence and drug abuse. Incarcerated individuals can use cell phones to help smuggle in drugs and weapons, organize attempts to escape, or order crimes to be committed inside or outside the prison. However contraband can be mitigated through the use of the Metrasens Cellsense contraband detection system.

Metrasens, the recognized leader in advanced detection systems for security and safety applications, offers next generation detection system, Cellsense Ultra with Xact ID intelligent detection technology. This reimagined detection system features expertly designed software algorithms and machine learning to boost all-around detection performance while introducing data collection, reporting, and systems integration.

Metrasens has seized the opportunity and created breakthrough technology, pushing the detection system category to new limits. Through these achievements, Cellsense Ultra offers its users:
