How ACT™ Works
Anti-Cloak™ Technology (ACT™) provides the benefits of DT (Dual Technology) while avoiding its
drawbacks. This patent pending innovation has created a new standard for detectors.
Dual Technology, a combination of PIR +MW, was an important development for the security
industry...but, it has 2 major weaknesses:
IR emission blocking cloaks employed by intruders enable avoidance of detection.
PIR sensitivity is reduced when the protected area's ambient temperature approaches body
temperature.
Responding to requests from its customer base to solve these pressing problems, RISCO Group
developed ACT™ -a revolutionary anti-cloak solution.
ACT™ prevents the alarm system from being bypassed, by neutralizing attempts to camouflage IR
radiation. Using unique pattern recognition algorithms, ACT™ distinguishes between the weak IR
signal of a moving intruder and the background noise and thermal interferences that may cause
false alarms.
Temperature
Once the presence of an intruder is recognized, ACT™ switches the system automatically from dual
channel PIR/MW mode to single channel MW mode for a predetermined period of time, in order to
trigger an alarm utilizing the MW channel, and then returns to dual channel mode.
In the second case, when the ambient temperature approaches body temperature, the ACT™
switches to microwave-only detection.
Offering significantly higher detection capabilities as well as immunity from false alarms, ACT™
thwarts even the most sophisticated burglars.
