The Apstec Falcon Select solution is specifically designed to meet the needs of Customs operations to provide fast and non-invasive screening of people for illicit drugs concealed on the body or in body-worn/hand-carried bags.
Apstec Falcon Select non-invasively screens the full height of the person for concealments on the body, as well as screening their body-worn and hand-carried bags. Highly mobile and deployable within minutes, Apstec Falcon Select supports a wide range of operational scenarios.
The technology was selected as the sole equipment to be funded by the EU, via the Pan European Network of Customs Practitioners, to be developed specifically to deliver 'Fast non-intrusive screening of passengers to detect and deter body-worn drugs'. The project is complete and the resulting solution delivers a powerful capability that complements existing Customs efforts, to increase the effectiveness of operations in a proportionate, pragmatic and affordable way.
