ISS Advances to Pilot Phase of ‘Transit Tech Lab’ Initiative

WOODBRIDGE, N.J. – Global video intelligence and data awareness solutions provider ISS (Intelligent Security Systems) recently announced today that it has been selected to take part in the large-scale pilot phase of the Transit Tech Lab (TTL), a public-private partnership created by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) and the Partnership Fund for New York City to accelerate innovation in public transportation.  

Last year, ISS and 17 other companies were chosen as finalists from 150 global applicants to take part in an eight-week proof-of-concept (PoC) for Transit Tech Lab to “demonstrate how our respective technologies enhance public transportation systems and services,” the announcement says.

During the PoC, ISS collaborated with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to showcase the capabilities of its under-vehicle inspection solution, the SecurOS UVSS (Under Vehicle Surveillance System). Leveraging the UVSS, ISS “demonstrated how automated under-inspection capabilities could streamline the current vehicle security checkpoint process at the World Trade Center,” according to the announcement.

How ISS Became Finalists in Transit Tech Lab

The UVSS was used to scan the undercarriages of more than 2,000 vehicles for prohibited items and anomalies, while simultaneously collecting real-time data regarding vehicle flows, types and checkpoint passage times.   

“As a company committed to innovation and excellence, we are honored to expand our involvement with the Transit Tech Lab and showcase how ISS’ groundbreaking solutions can improve transportation, security and efficiency,” says Aluisio Figueiredo, CEO of ISS, in the announcement.

“This opportunity allows us to demonstrate the scalability of our technology and its ability to seamlessly integrate within critical transit systems to address emerging challenges,” he says.

Welcome to Gary Pearce Home Services' authoritative guide on Future of Dental and Medical Practices CCTV in 2026 - UK trends and technology . 1. The Regulatory Landscape for Clinical CCTV in 2026 As we move through 2026, medical and dental practices across the UK face unprecedented scrutiny regarding patient privacy and physical security. Clinical environments require a delicate balance: maintaining absolute patient confidentiality while ensuring robust protection against theft, vandalism, and false liability claims. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has updated its strict codes of practice to reflect advances in AI-driven edge surveillance. For dental and medical practices to remain compliant, any newly deployed CCTV system must strictly adhere to the ICO CCTV Code , UK GDPR , and the industry-recognised BS EN 62676 standard for video surveillance systems. To achieve SSAIB Grade 2 or Grade 3 certification, practice owners must ensure that security data i...

The 8K Resolution Era: Why Forensic CCTV is Now the Residential Standard

# The 8K Resolution Era: Why Forensic CCTV is Now the Residential Standard For years, 4K (8-Megapixel) resolution was considered the "ceiling" for residential security. But as we move into 2026, the demand for **Forensic Clarity** has pushed 8K (32-Megapixel) sensors into the mainstream. At **CCTV Systems**, we are seeing a massive shift towards 8K installations for homeowners who require more than just "vague shapes"

Why Weapons Detection Systems Fail Without Proper Planning

The weapons detection market has exploded over the past three years, driven by heightened security concerns across every vertical market. Healthcare facilities, educational institutions, corporate campuses, and entertainment venues are all investing in advanced weapons screening technology. For security integrators, this represents significant opportunity – and significant risk. Unlike traditional security systems that can be “set and forget,” weapons detection implementations succeed or fail based on factors that extend far beyond technical installation. The difference between a profitable, referral-generating project and a costly support nightmare often comes down to understanding challenges that don’t appear in any technical manual. The False Promise of “Plug and Play” Vendors market their systems as simple to deploy and operate. The reality is more complex. Advanced detection technology may be sophisticated, but successful implementation requires integrators to think beyond netw...
