- Description
- Next Generation Volumetric Intrusion Detection System Sandia National Laboratories is developing a new generation of volumetric intrusion detection sensors for high security applications. The primary goals are to develop a sensor system capable of meeting or exceeding all US government physical intrusion detection requirements, and, additionally, generate less than 1 nuisance alarm per ten days in all weather conditions. The targeted design life of the system is 10 or more years. A significant element of this effort includes integration of a commercially available short range scanning radar with scan rates greater than 3 scans per second, and a range of 100m or more. Such a scanner would detect runners, walkers, and belly crawlers. The data stream produced by the radar will be fed into Sandia developed advanced statistical algorithms, fused with one or more volumetric sensors with complementary phenomenologies. The resulting technology will more accurately detect intruders and differentiate intruders from nuisance alarm sources during all weather conditions. Sandia has been developing very specialized sensor technologies and evaluating commercial intrusion detection technologies for more than 30 years. This know-how in advanced statistical algorithms for high reliability sensor systems will be utilized to create an ultra-low NAR (Nuisance Alarm Rate) volumetric sensor system. The enhanced system will be capable of higher accuracy in challenging weather conditions. Sandia's primary focus is in seeking a company or companies with short range radar scanning capabilities, interested in partnering opportunities that could lead to the development of the next generation intrusion detection systems. The successful completion of this effort will result in a quantum improvement over existing intrusion detection systems. Sandia National Laboratories is a multi-program laboratory managed and operated by Sandia Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation, for the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-AC04-94AL85000.
