What is Under-vehicle inspection (UVIS or UVMS)?


Under-vehicle inspection, or UVIS (Under Vehicle Inspection System) or UVMS (Under Vehicle Management System), is a high-end inspection system specifically designed to scan the underside of vehicles and identify suspicious objects or anomalies. The system uses high-definition cameras and advanced software to rapidly deliver a detailed image and analysis of the vehicle’s undercarriage.


This prevents hidden weapons, explosives, drugs, or other prohibited items from gaining unnoticed access to secured locations.

How does UVIS work?

  1. Undercarriage scanning:
    When a vehicle drives over the UVIS system, high-definition cameras capture precise images of the underside of the vehicle.
  2. Software analysis:
    The AI-driven software compares the image with previous scans or a predefined database, automatically identifying anomalies, hidden objects, or open spaces.
  3. Immediate feedback:
    The system provides real-time alerts to security personnel upon detection of suspicious elements or anomalies.
  4. Integration with other security systems:
    UVIS can be linked to access control, number plate recognition (ANPR), and CCTV systems for a fully integrated approach.

The benefits of under-vehicle inspection:

  • Fast and efficient inspection:
    UVIS enables a full inspection of vehicles in a matter of seconds.
  • Non-intrusive inspection:
    Drivers do not need to leave the vehicle and the inspection is completely contactless.
  • Accurate detection:
    High-definition cameras and smart software reduce false positives and identify even the smallest anomalies or hidden objects.
  • Flexible installation:
    Suitable for fixed installation at entrances to secured areas or as a mobile solution for temporary sites.
