Image Scan Holdings plc, a provider of 3D X-ray imaging products for the industrial and security inspection markets, reports a licensing agreement with Galaxy Scientific Corporation; a provider of security technology to the US aviation industry and US Government departments.
Under the terms of the agreement, Image Scan Holdings has granted Galaxy Scientific the rights to reproduce, distribute or sub-license its MimiX software with Galaxy’s training software package used by US organisations for training operators of X-ray security screening equipment: Galaxy’s TRX Machine Simulation Software Package.
Nicholas Fox, Chief Executive of Image Scan Holdings plc, said: “The Galaxy Scientific agreement forms part of our ongoing strategy of partnering with complementary organisations to open up specific opportunities within the global X-ray security market so that our X-ray technology and advanced solutions become standardised within key sectors.”
Image Scan reports that its MimiX software mimics the visual appearance of X-ray images, plus the associated image processing functions, generated by the main X-ray security screening systems on the market. This allows an organisation to train its staff across a range of X-ray security equipment without having to acquire the underlying machines and/or simulators or acquire reference images for each of the security machines on the market.
