Product overview

An under vehicle system scans the chassis of every vehicle that passes and shows the result to an officer in real time. It replaces the mirror on a pole, which only ever reveals what the officer happens to look at, and it produces a stored image that can be compared against a previous pass of the same vehicle.

The HZ-3400 runs area scan and linear scan simultaneously. Linear scan holds image quality even in poor conditions and with a contaminated lens; area scan produces a low-distortion image that is consistent from one pass to the next, which is what later comparison or automated analysis depends on.

The system is supplied as a portable kit or a fixed installation. Portable versions pack into a wheeled server cart with an embedded battery that runs about eight hours, so a checkpoint can be established or moved without civil works. Fixed versions mount flush in the roadway or on the surface in a stainless steel housing.

Why dual mode matters

Dual-mode imagingArea scan and linear scan images generated simultaneously from one pass.
Real-time displayScanned sections of the chassis appear on the monitor as the vehicle moves.
Rugged housing304 stainless steel construction for continuous outdoor use.
No length limitSupports vehicles of any length, with 80–2000 mm chassis height.
Bi-directional scanEmbedded triggers support traffic in both directions.
Licence plate captureFront and rear plate recognition with optional surrounding cameras.
Battery operationUp to 8 hours per charge for portable configurations.
Comparison readyConsistent area scan images support pass-to-pass comparison.

Applications

Government and military

Compound and installation gate checkpoints.

Prisons and detention

Vehicle entry control to prevent contraband being driven in.

Airports and ports

Service vehicle and cargo inspection at access points.

Critical infrastructure

Power, water and industrial site vehicle checkpoints.

Regulation note: under vehicle imaging is generally not subject to the same regulatory restrictions as X-ray personnel screening, but local requirements vary. Country of installation and approvals remain the customer's responsibility; we assist with documentation.

Frequently asked questions

Area scan or linear scan — which do we need?

The dual-mode system produces both from a single pass, so you do not have to choose. Linear scan survives harsh conditions and lens contamination; area scan gives a consistent, low-distortion image for comparison. The combination covers both requirements.

How fast can vehicles pass?

Up to 45 km/h in the forward direction for area scan, and up to 20 km/h for linear scan in either direction. For permanent checkpoints a controlled speed of 10–20 km/h produces the most usable images.

Can we see the plate and the chassis in one record?

Yes. The licence plate recognition camera captures and recognises both front and rear plates and links them to the undercarriage image. Additional surrounding cameras can be added for a full perimeter record of each vehicle.

Does a permanent installation need road works?

The flush-mount version is set into the roadway and does need excavation. The surface-mount version sits on top of the road in a stainless steel housing and requires no civil works, which is usually the practical choice for existing sites.

Can it operate without a mains supply?

Portable configurations run from a battery embedded in the mobile server cart for about eight hours, so a temporary checkpoint needs no power connection. Fixed installations use mains power.
