UVM1 | Mobile Vehicle Monitoring System
The uniXSCAN UVM1 is an advanced Under-Vehicle Inspection System (UVIS) designed to replace conventional, inefficient methods like handheld mirrors or inspection pits. It provides a high-resolution, full-color view of a vehicle's undercarriage to detect dangerous objects (weapons, explosives, drugs, contraband) as well as safety or quality defects (such as rust).
Its key differentiator is its versatility; it is a surface-mounted unit that requires no roadworks, making it suitable for both rapid mobile deployment and permanent installation.

Key Features
Benefits & Applications
Client Benefits
- Rapid Deployment: Can be set up quickly without the time and cost associated with digging up roads for installation.
- Enhanced Detection: Far superior to manual inspection methods, providing a clear, complete view that eliminates blind spots common with mirrors.
- Operational Flexibility: The same unit can be used for a temporary VIP event one day and a permanent gate installation the next.
- Cost Savings: Eliminates civil engineering costs associated with in-ground UVIS systems.
- Improved Throughput: Allows for faster processing of vehicles at checkpoints compared to manual inspections.
Use Cases
- Security Checkpoints: General access control for sensitive areas.
- Border Checkpoints: Inspecting vehicles for smuggling or contraband.
- Military Bases: High-security entry points requiring threat detection.
- Airports: Securing airside access and parking facilities.
- Correctional Facilities & Prisons: Preventing the introduction of contraband.
- Embassies & Consulates: Protecting diplomatic missions.
- Critical Infrastructure: Power plants, government buildings, and data centers
Integration & Compatibility
- Software Integration: The system includes an Automatic Comparison Feature, suggesting it runs on a workstation that processes and analyzes the image data.
- Checkpoint Integration: Designed to work alongside other checkpoint technologies (typically pairs with License Plate Recognition (LPR) and driver cameras).
- Control Room Compatibility: Inspection data can be viewed and managed from standard security workstations used in control rooms and monitoring centers.
- Multi-Lane and Multi-Site Compatibility: Supports use across single or multiple lanes and can be deployed at different sites using the same system setup.
Deployment Options
- Installation Type: The uniXSCAN UVM1 is surface mounted and placed directly on the road surface. No cutting, embedding, or permanent ground modification is required.
- Portability: With a weight of approximately 22 kg, the system can be carried and positioned by one or two operators. This supports mobile operations and temporary inspection points.
- Infrastructure Requirements: No roadworks or drainage systems are required. The system can be deployed on existing paved surfaces with minimal site preparation.

Complementary Products
MicroSearch® H3P1
human presence detection
MicroSearch H3P1 strengthens under vehicle inspection by addressing what cameras and mirrors cannot confirm. While an under vehicle inspection system provides visual assessment of the vehicle underside, H3P1 focuses on detecting concealed people inside vehicles.
How it complements under vehicle inspection systems
- Confirms human presence: Detects micro vibrations caused by the human heartbeat, even when individuals are hidden in compartments or cargo areas.
- Portable and immediate use: Compact handheld device that can be used straight from its case with no setup time.
- Supports mobile inspections: Ideal for traffic stops, secondary checks, parking areas, and locations where fixed inspection lanes are not available.
- Enhances decision making: Provides a quick yes or no indication that supports officers before escalation or manual search.
- Fits layered inspection workflows: Used alongside under vehicle inspection systems to combine visual inspection with physiological detection.
In practice, the under vehicle inspection system identifies anomalies and physical risks, while MicroSearch H3P1 verifies whether a vehicle may also conceal people. Together, they provide a more complete and reliable vehicle inspection approach for border control, police, and security operations.
