Chongqing Metro Monorail Selects NICE’s Digital Video Security Solution
NICE Systems has been selected by China’s Chongqing Metro to provide NICE’s digital video security solution to enhance safety and
security at the 18 monorail stations of its Line 3 route, against crime and potential threats. The NICE solution was selected following
successful deployment of 6 Beijing Metro lines, and comes following the seventh project for Beijing Metro’s Line 15. NICE’ business
partner for the project is Beijing JingShiDa Machinery and Equipment Research Institute.
The Chongqing Metro is a monorail system in Chongqing, the first of its kind in China, part of the central government’s project to
develop the Western regions in China. Line 3 will run from north to south, linking the districts separated by Chongqing’s two main
rivers, the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers. When completed, Line 3 will be over 21kms long, and will have 18 stations, five of which will be
underground. The line is also intended to be extended north toward Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport and south to Yudong in
Ba’nan District.
NICE’s advanced real-time distributed digital video solution will be deployed to help protect passengers and the metro line and
stations. It will be deployed in the Traffic Command and Control Centre, connected to a security system that consists of 700 channels.
By providing real-time alerts to security personnel, the result will be enhanced passenger safety and better asset protection.
Smiths Wins $27m Canadian

Contract for Advanced PASSENGER RISK ASSESSMENT
Checkpoint X-Ray Systems
22null25 March 2010
Smiths Detection has announced a $27 London Heathrow
million (CAD) order from the Canadian Air
Transportation Security Authority (CATSA)
to provide advanced X-ray systems that will
upgrade existing airport checkpoints. The
Advanced Threat Identification X-ray (aTiX)
devices can detect explosives automatically.
The CATSA purchase covers two sizes
of X-ray systems, including the HI SCAN
6040 aTiX. Upgrading from earlier Smiths
Detection products, the order is intended
to replace traditional single-view systems
in airports across Canada. They will be
deployed in the coming months.
The order also includes the brand new
HI SCAN 7555 aTiX, the latest member
of Smiths Detection’s aTiX range. Slightly
larger than previous scanners, it can
accommodate items such as strollers
and larger carry-ons. The CATSA order
represents the first deployment of the new
HI SCAN 7555 aTiX system worldwide.
Unlike conventional systems, aTiX
captures multiple views of carry-on bags in
a single sweep to provide more information

about every piece of luggage. It also includes
powerful software algorithms which help the
