Bosch

Top-quality smoke detectors no longer have to ruin carefully designed interiors. Bosch’s flush-mounted FCP-500 Series detectors virtually disappear into their environment and they can be color-matched to most ceilings. Dual “virtual” chambers and an optional carbon monoxide sensor provide a high level of protection while virtually eliminating unwanted alarms. The detector automatically compensates for dirt buildup on the lens and signals the panel when dirty or completely blocked by a foreign object.

Hirsch Electronics

The Hirsch Verification Station confirms the identity of a cardholder to a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card. The Verification Station supports a variety of identity verification modes including HSPD-12 FIPS 201. The unit includes a Hirsch ScramblePad®, contact and contactless smart card readers, biometric fingerprint reader and LCD display. The unit is designed for use at card issuance, remote standalone or networked verification, enrollment to a Hirsch Velocity Physical Access Control System and as a door access reader.

Protect A/S

On August 1, 2005, the Smoke Cannon™ 1100 made its U.S. debut, aiming directly to prevent store theft. Within seconds of activation, PROTECT goes to work, filling a retail location, office or factory with dense clouds of startling but harmless fog. With denied visibility, thieves become instantly disoriented and flee the way they got in.

MicroTrack is a volumetric, terrain-following sensor that can reliably detect and precisely locate walking, running or crawling intruders.
