Why Choose Intercept?
Buy with Federal Funds
The Tek84 Intercept scanner is an ideal purchase for your American Rescue Plan funding. One product solves two problems: detecting concealed threats while protecting against COVID‑19 transmission.
Nothing Hides from Intercept
X-ray imaging reveals both metallic and non-metallic threats, including weapons, drugs, cell phones and other contraband. Each subject is screened from below their feet to above their head, showing objects under their clothing and within their body.
Fast Screening – No Touching
One staff member can screen up to 180 subjects per hour, while maintaining the COVID-safe distance of 6 feet between people. An FDA-approved thermal camera measures the temperature of each inmate, providing an early indication of COVID-19 and other infections.
Items detected: Teeth fillings, neck chain, nonmetallic object in shoe heal, ring, and zipper.
Next Generation Inmate Screening
Easy to use – Widely Accepted
More than 2,000 jails, prisons and detention facilities use x‐ray body scanners to search inmates. The subject simply stands on the Intercept stationary platform for a quick 3.8-second scan. Instantly, a detailed x‐ray image appears on the high‐resolution monitor, showing objects under the clothing and within body cavities.
Extremely Safe – Regulated by the FDA
Airport body scanners only detect items hidden under the clothing. The Intercept scanner is different. It also detects items within the body by transmitting a weak x‐ray beam completely through the subject. Scanned images appear similar to medical exams, yet only require about 1% of the x‐ray level. Federal safety standards allow each person to be screened up to 1,000 times per year on the lowest setting, allowing daily use. The Intercept scanner’s highest setting produces better images and allows 125 scans per year.
Better Images, Lower Dose, No Distortion
The Intercept scanning beam penetrates directly from back to front. This uses the shortest distance through the body, about 11 inches in thickness. In contrast, other products scan at an angle, which requires the beam to pass through about 16 inches of tissue. The extra 5 inches of thickness has a devastating effect on image quality and the dose required. Plus, angled scans make a 140 lbs person look like 300 lbs!
The Intercept horizontal beam also prevents image distortion; the belly button appears directly in front of the small of the back. With angled x-ray scanning, the belly button appears between the shoulder blades.
Patented Technology: Vertical Scanning
Intercept is a true breakthrough in body scanner technology, scanning the person vertically instead of horizontally. The scanning beam starts below the feet and moves vertically upward to above the head. This vertical scanning provides revolutionary benefits over all other approaches:
Quick setup; a few hours (not a few days)
A quick 3.8-second scan
(not 7-15 seconds)
Ultra‐small footprint,
only 34" x 72" (not 9' x 9')
Better image quality; lower x‐ray dose
Person remains stationary
(does not stand on a moving conveyer belt or platform)
No image distortion,
objects appear in the image at the same location as on the body
With built in wheels,
Intercept easily passes through doorways as small as 35" x 80"
