The Utah Motor Carrier Division's Port of Entry Authority will use infrared and ion scanning technology to detect braking system problems, along with the presence of narcotics, chemical toxins and explosives.
IRIS (Infra Red Inspection System), mounted in a van, uses infrared technology to detect problems with brakes, tires and running gear in heavy trucks. A high-resolution monitor displays temperature discrepancies as varying shades of gray ranging from black/cold to white/hot. This equipment allows an ifficer to identify trucks and buses with potential braking problems.
The system is currently being used in Canada and in Alaska, Arkansas, Kentucky, New Mexico, Utah and Virginia.
The system is also being used at the Winter Olympic Games. The addition of a Barringer Ionscan uses particle and vapor technology to detect and analyze the presence of trace amounts of narcotics, chemical toxins and explosives.
