Hitcents partners with WKU professor to develop new explosive detection software
When WKU Professor, Dr. Bruce Kessler came to Hitcents with a mathematical algorithm and a dream we went to work. Partnering with Dr. Kessler, Hitents' senior developers and designers set out to produce an innovative new software called Peaklet Analysis. This new software could help existing explosive detection technology improve their detection responses and provide more accurate data reports.
The new software helps recognize explosive materials by using low-level radiation and Guassian Peak identification software to provide technicians with the information and specifications they need to find, stop and prevent explosive materials in airports and other high security areas.
Homeland Security Newswire picked up on this new software and algorithm and wrote a story on how Peaklet is poised to help military and civilian explosive detection. Below is a section of that article written by Homeland Security Newswire:
"Using a mathematical algorithm developed by Bruce Kessler, a math professor at WKU, Peaklet Analysis hopes to improve its ability to detect explosives. Programmers and software developers at Hitcents.com are currently working on translating Kessler’s algorithm into multiple programming languages to make software that can function in any computer environment.
Gordon Baylis, the vice president for research at Peaklet, said the algorithm “has the potential to be a very important breakthrough in security screening and explosives detection.”
Kessler added, “My hope is that our product would come into play to help explosives detection in airports, in detection of drugs and contraband and even help protect our military from explosive devices.
Peaklet’s software detects explosives by analyzing low-level radiation when an item is scanned. Different elements give off different energy levels, so a graph of the spectrum rays of an individual item will indicate the presence of explosives if it contains peaks in certain locations."
