Sago Showcases its Suicide Bomber Detection Unit

(Miami, Florida)  Sago Systems, Inc. today unveiled its ST 150 system specifically designed to detect suicide bombs carried on people.  The patented imager is radiation-free, portable, and produces high-quality imagery revealing the exact location of the weapon and its size.  Sago’s ST150 unit “sees” through clothing providing authorities instant information critical in helping to prevent terrorist attacks.
