Munich, Germany-based test & measurement technology supplier Rohde & Schwarz announced March 27 that it has acquired the body scanning technology unit of Camero-Tech, an Israel-based provider of sense-through-the-wall solutions and body scanning applications and owned by SK Group.
Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. Rohde & Schwarz said the addition enlarges its product portfolio and will strengthen its position in the security market by complementing its existing security scanner product lines. Correlating with the Camero-Tech acquisition, Rohde & Schwarz has founded a new research & development company named SeemPulse Ltd.
"With this strategic investment we are enlarging our product range for security checks in sensitive areas with new and cutting edge solutions, including non-aviation and civil infrastructure applications," said Christian Evers, Rohde & Schwarz vice president of microwave imaging, in a press release. "This is especially important for areas and venues that are highly frequented.”
Camero-Tech founder and CEO Amir Beeri added, "We are very excited to be part of Rohde & Schwarz and pleased that our innovative security scanner technology has been recognized for its ability to address a wide range of applications requiring very high throughput.”
Founded in 2004, Camero Camero’s solutions provide real-time information on multiple stationery and moving objects concealed behind walls or barriers—providing operators with situational awareness and operational advantage, utilizing unique pulsed-based UWB micro-power radar technology. The company markets its EasyCheck body scanning system, which enables real-time detection of objects that are concealed under clothing—metallic or not—while people walk through the system.
