Suspect Detection Systems’ Cogito Technology Completes Pilot Tests at U.S. Railway Terminal

Suspect Detection Systems declared that it has successfully accomplished a key proof of concept pilot at a main railway terminal in one of the biggest capital cities in the world.

Based on Suspect Detection Systems' proprietary Cogito technology, four-day long screening in real-time conditions was conducted for several passengers. This large-scale pilot was performed under the complete supervision of the major security and law enforcement agencies within the nation. The pilot was conducted in association with a governmental defense contractor.

Following this pilot testing, officials are planning to incorporate Cogito at similar terminals throughout the country. At present, the company is negotiating with the local agents and defense contractors.

Using two individual variants of Cogito Technology, the pilot showed the multi-tiered approach of the Suspect Detection System to terminal security.

• The first level was conducted using Cogito C300R Remote Mass Thermal-based Screening System. This remote technology is capable of immediately segregating potential terrorists and criminals having contraband such as weapons, narcotics, and explosives.
• The second level was carried out with Cogito 4M fully automated Rapid Interrogation System. Using this technology, suspects intending crime or terrorist act were detected in addition to showing the suspect's association with terror organizations. Subjects detected by the remote mass screening process were subjected to this interrogation system.

The Cogito Rapid Interrogation System is now being commercially used by private sector businesses and federal agencies on a global scale. It has predominant application in Mexico as well as in India. Cogito has achieved successful testing in the U.S.
