Duos Technologies lands Raytheon contract

Raytheon Intelligence, Information and Services (IIS) has awarded a contract to Duos Technologies, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Information Systems Associates Inc. (ISA), to provide a railcar undercarriage screening system in accordance with a Task Order established by the Transportation Security Administration for conducting a series of pilot programs to improve intermodal security at a variety of transportation focal points within the United States and its territories.

The award will use Duos Technologies’ Vehicle Undercarriage Examiner (vue™) system in support of a Railway Undercarriage Screening demonstration deployment at a target test site identified within the Amtrak rail system.

“Our Vehicle Undercarriage Examiner (vue™) system has demonstrated the ability to meet the demands that address sophisticated and complex threats,” said Felix Krupczynski, Executive Vice President and General Manager for ISA Duos Technologies. “It is the latest security technology for real world environments and a prime example of new and innovative technology that helps us stay ahead of those intending to harm our nation.”

The vue™ system is part of Duos Technologies’ proprietary Railcar Inspection Portal technology, the company’s latest innovation that combines several of its intelligent technologies and sub-systems using analytical algorithms to process and evaluate a broad range of data from multiple sensor technologies.

“This awarded contract is strategically very significant as it transforms our intelligent security analytical technology solutions that has already been validated in the freight rail environment to the transit rail sector,” said Gianni Arcaini, Chairman and CEO of ISA Duos Technologies. “We expect that there will be a significant shift in focus of government funding to transit rail safety and security in the very near future, especially in light of many recent incidents surrounding rail transit operations.”
