ChandlerMay Selected to Build Key Subsystems of Advanced Millimeter Wave Weapon Detection System
Published: 2/14/2007 | Author: Chandler/May

Huntsville, AL – February 14, 2007. Chandler/May is a leading manufacturer of Mobile Shelter systems and in the production of complex electro-mechanical products.

CMI has been working with Brijot Imaging Systems for over a year in the development and early production stages of an object detection and people scanner system developed by Brijot. CMI has delivered over $1.2 million of the scanner subsystems and the product is still in early trials around the world, including airports, distribution centers, government buildings and various checkpoints/gated locations that require fast weapon detection of moving crowds.

The system’s passive Radiometric Scanner can detect concealed objects by distinguishing between the millimeter wave energy naturally emitted by the human body and the energy of the concealed objects even when they’re hidden beneath clothing.

Passive means the system accomplishes this unobtrusively, without radiating subjects or posing health risks even to those persons with pacemakers or to pregnant women.

Deployed as a stand-off application, it will not cause claustrophobia and is a safe and discrete screening solution for all. Further, Brijot’s millimeter wave sensors do not image anatomical details, thus protecting passenger privacy.

The customer selected Chandler/May due to a variety of factors including robust production facilities with expansion capability, its background in the design and production of complex embedded technologies for the military, and the financial integrity of the company, which allows for fast-scale ramp up in the number of units produced.

About Chandler/May

Chandler/May Inc.’s Integration division builds dozens of unique and complex products for its customers, including several Tactical Unmanned Aircraft Ground Control Shelter systems. The Shelters are currently operational in several military deployments. The Shelters are built in Huntsville at CMI’s new 25,000 square foot Engineering and Production building. CMI incorporates the latest technologies into these shelters using CMI’s unique integration and test processes for rugged systems.

The Shelters utilize a wide range of CMI capabilities, including the latest in machine shop technology, cable fabrication and rugged systems packaging as well as the incorporation of high-end embedded VME Sun based workstations, video and communications products.

Chandler/May, Inc. has reduced the Shelter build time from 6 months to 4 weeks. The Ground Control Shelter Case Study gives complete integration and detailed product information on this project, including the benefits of the Shadow TUAV system in combat and the processes involved in building the shelter.
