Facility Security
ICx Technologies is working on security challenges within a widely varied group of facilities including corporate headquarters, financial institutions, sports arenas, retail centers, casinos, embassies, power plants, and government buildings. Each facility presents a unique set of variables which seek to balance freedom and control; access and non-access. Each organization requires traffic to flow smoothly without endangering occupants.
Solutions depend on flexible and creative approaches to movement patterns, access requirements, and necessary openings. ICx understands the sensitivities and the need for peace of mind. Discover how better security may enhance your operation's success by contacting your ICx representative today.
Representative Examples
Wright Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio
12 ICx short-range ground surveillance radars (STS-350) provide surveillance across runways, ramps, taxiways, and tarmac areas for the 445th Airlift Wing - one of the 192 Air Force bases protected by these ICx systems. A fiber optic network links the radars to a command center where ICx tracking and alert software interfaces with the Base's general surveillance system.
U.S. Army Depot, Umatilla, Oregon
The software and hardware of the ICx StarWatch platform networks and controls over 1,500 distributed security sensors at one of the Army's largest weapons depots. Deployed around the 19,000-acre facility, these sensors monitor the perimeter fence, dozens of portals and gates, and over 150 buildings, arms rooms, bunkers, and chemical igloos. The network includes closed-circuit TV cameras, card-entry and biometric systems, and other access control hardware. Control room systems feature automated alarms and automatic switching of camera feeds.
Blue Grass Army Depot, Kentucky
Seven ICx Cerberus surveillance towers, linked by a wireless network to a central command center, help secure the four-mile perimeter of a large repository for munitions and chemical weapons. The towers are equipped with ground surveillance radar and visible and infrared cameras, with wireless links to unattended ground sensors. The command center monitoring software includes automated alarms and a geosynchronous overlay map that displays radar tracks, range to targets, and instant video pop-up images of targets.
