Radiation Technology Protects the Olympics

As the 2008 Beijing Olympics kick off, ensuring that all the events run smoothly and free from security breaches or possible terrorist attacks is a main concern.
 
To help protect spectators, athletes and others from these threats, Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (BOCOG) worked with Universal Detection Technology of California.
 
The company provides counter-terrorism consulting and training services and is a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies. They will be providing devices able to detect Gamma and Neutron Radiation.
 
In addition to the 80,000 security personnel for the Olympics, first responders, border control staff, customs inspectors and site security personnel in critical infrastructures will be equipped with these instruments.
