Geutebruck equipment selected for International Atomic Energy Agency's training center in Russia free RSS news feed from the Biometric News Portal

15 July 2010
Last year, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) upgraded facilities at the International Special Training Center in Obninsk in the Russian Federation. This centre is where operators and inspectors of physical protection systems at nuclear facilities all over the former Soviet Union and other IAEA member states receive practical training and where newly developed equipment is tested and approved for use in the Russian nuclear industry.

To enable training on combating attack, sabotage and theft of nuclear materials to be as realistic as possible, the centre now has a range of security systems typical of current nuclear installations. Key recent acquisitions included Geutebruck’s re_porter and GeViScope video security platforms. These have been integrated with a large number of other third party systems, including person and vehicle access control systems and a variety of different intruder and perimeter detection facilities, to simulate the complex systems used in nuclear plants.

“Besides always being networkable and open for integration,” explains Lev Datsenko, Geutebruck’s regional manager for Eastern Europe, “Geutebruck systems are particularly suitable for this kind of application because of their excellent video and alarm management characteristics which ensure that operators have complete control of extensive and complex installations. And an additional attraction is that their video encoding is so fast that there are no latency problems so users get normal real-time handling of speed dome cameras and pan and tilt systems too.”

Geutebruck’s own high speed, high precision Argus pan and tilt system was also on the IAEA’s shopping list for the Obninsk outdoor training area. There it is equipped with a colour camera and an IR spotlight, but other customers use it with a CCD camera and a thermal imaging camera for spotting intruders in fog and smoke as well as all round the clock.

At the official opening guests had the opportunity to view the new indoor and outdoor training and testing grounds and the array of new security equipment from manufacturers in Canada, Israel, Italy, Japan, France, Germany, Russia, UK and the USA.
