NEW: PERSON-AWARE ALERTS
Fewer nuisance alerts. More confident screening.
Metrasens Ultra can now recognize when a person is directly in front of the system and activate alerts based on their presence. This helps reduce nuisance alerts caused by surrounding activity, giving operators clearer, more relevant alerts during screening.
(People-aware alerts are available on Metrasens Ultra models with an integrated optical sensor.)
Unmatched in Versatility, Design, & Ease of Use.

With flexible deployment options, Metrasens Ultra is designed to work in your space—it can be used free-standing or wall-mounted; indoors or outdoors; in one static location or moved around your facility as needed.

Efficient screening.
