Westminster Company Receives Patent for Ultrasound Device

CTRL LogoWestminster's CTRL Systems Inc. announced recently that the USPTO (United States Patent & Trade Office) has awarded and filed a patent for Method of Defense in Depth Ultrasound Intrusion Detection (UDID) on behalf of CTRL Systems Inc. The inventors of the UDID are Mr. Robert Roche, Dr. Vadym Picture of CTRL LogoBuyalsky and Dr. Vladmir Herman.

The UDID method uses an array of ultrasonic devices to place an invisible dome over and around various size objects to detect and track intrusion into its field. Items the size of a car or aircraft to large structures such as buildings or water treatment plants could be protected by this new UDID system. The UDID itself would be stealth in nature and difficult to disable.

Dr. Buyalsky, R&D Scientist at CTRL, states "The UDID can serve as a stand-alone system or as the short range protection for other longer-range surveillance systems in order to provide greater integrity for the complete security array." UDID should also be considered as a possible addition to other existing systems lending greater dimension to total surveillance.

CTRL is currently collaborating with companies in the US and abroad for the inclusion of this new system to meet their specific requirements. Read More >>
