Border patrol is a vital part of national security and the first line of defence against transnational crime. With thousands of crossings to monitor every day, border patrol officers need to efficiently identify signs of illegal activities such as human trafficking, drug, weapon and contraband smuggling, without manually searching every person or vehicle.
Unusual radio frequency signals are one of the best indicators of criminal activity at a busy border crossing, whether it be cell phones on hidden passengers or GPS trackers hidden in contraband. Traditional search methods, including manual inspections and metal detectors, are resource intensive and ineffective when targeting the wrong places. Cell phone detectors can pinpoint exactly where to look and justify a more in-depth search.
