Application Benefits:

• Simple to install - no civil works such as the digging up of expensive flooring
• Adapts to existing building and can be installed into an existing corridor or small room, unlike the portal solution which can cause user rejection due to claustrophobia, etc.
• A typical T-DAR installation includes one or two, small, visually unobtrusive stereo camera heads which are surface-mounted on ceiling, or alternately, may be mounted above a drop-ceiling
• Seamless incorporation into existing building security systems during addition or renovation project
• Low or no maintenance -
  T-DAR has no motors, gearboxes or moving parts to wear out or break
• No special lighting required; overhead office-level of 300 lux is sufficient
• Allows mixed traffic - in a mantrap configuration T-DAR can be used as an entry and egress point for both pedestrian and carts
• Simple controls via a straight-forward graphical user interface for all operating and communication elements

Security, Economic and Application Benefits of a
T-DAR^® Mantrap Security System

A Newton Security T-DAR system uses advanced, patented stereo vision technology to detect and deter tailgating and piggybacking, while enabling operators of secure facilities to accrue on-going savings, as well as benefitting from simple and adaptive installation and application.

Security Benefits :

• T-DAR^® discerns humans from non-human objects within the field of view of the stereo camera head and continues to track the human form within the scanning coverage zone.
• T-DAR works in conjunction with virtually any badge or pass system, including biometrics and smart ID systems for an authorized entry, as well as with electromechanical door locks
• T-DAR provides immediate and accurate entry authentication and recognition
• Real-time alarm activation and event camera playback when violations occur
• Real-time transmission of alarm conditions and event video to central security
• In addition to doors and mantrap installations, T-DAR technology can be used to guard wall-mounted or free-standing art displays, industrial machines, or other sensitive areas where physical barriers would be impractical or unaesthetic.

Economic Benefits:

• Reducing security costs is a primary benefit of the
  T-DAR mantrap system
• Eliminates the need for security personnel at many points within a facility
• Return on investment (ROI) for a mantrap system can be rapid
• T-DAR will pay for itself in a matter of months, for example if a facility is using 24-hour guard service

Case in Point - Canadian Airports:

• A guard must be posted 24/7 at each restricted area door.
• Cost of guarding per door is $110,000 per year.
• The full cost of a mantrap including the T-DAR system, biometric reader, cameras, lock, etc, is approximately $50,000
• Return on investment was less than six months
• On going savings:
  First year-$60,000
  Thereafter-$110,000 per year
