Dynetics to Showcase groundAware Radar at American Association of Airport Executives Conference

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. - May 20, 2013 - PRLog -- Every day, people, vehicles and wildlife breach airport perimeters and find their way onto airport grounds where they either go undetected altogether or elude discovery for dangerously too long. Dynetics has developed a surveillance radar that will enable airports to immediately detect intruders and respond before they pose real danger to safety and security. The company is spotlighting the Dynetics groundAware Airport Perimeter and Ground Surveillance Radar at the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE) Annual Conference in Reno, Nev., May 19-21.

Dynetics, a 40-year innovator of sensor technologies, will demonstrate to airport industry representatives how groundAware’s technology instantaneously and accurately detects people, vehicles and wildlife when they breach perimeters and encroach on airport grounds.

“Using groundAware, airport security personnel can quickly focus their attention and priorities – including video surveillance cameras, police patrols and other assets – to respond to intrusions quickly and efficiently, said Dynetics President Tom Baumbach. “With ground, airports benefit from real-time situational awareness, which enables them to avoid surprises when intrusions take place, plus expedite responses before they threaten airport safety and security.”

According to Dynetics engineers, groundAware is software-defined, web-based and built with off-the-shelf components, making it easy to configure, deploy, use and afford for both large and small airports seeking to augment their situational awareness. They describe the key benefits to an airport’s security infrastructure as highly accurate situational awareness with a very low false alarm rate; all-weather dependability; high reliability and minimal support; flexibility to meet diverse needs; interoperability with video and other assets; and easy installation and use.

The AAAE annual conference attracts thousands of airport and aviation professionals, including airport executives; airport and aviation suppliers and vendors; airline personnel; and representatives from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Four days of discussions revolving around the current state of affairs of the airport industry will be supplemented by an exhibit hall with more than 200 vendors.  For more information about the conference, visit http://events.aaae.org/sites/130501/.
