Today we're taking a look at streaking and image artifacts that can often plague CT images or other 3D scans.
Depending on the objects, the scanner technology, energy geometry, and even environment factors......the energy from scanning technologies can interact with different materials in unexpected ways.
In the video below, Stratovan's President and CTO explains how Checkpoint can merge multiple scans of the same object to reduce streaking and other artifacts from the scan data. The outcome provides an image that is cleaner to help in patient education, specimen showcasing, and publication presentation.
Don't let a single scan you spend your time and hard fought resources collecting go to waste. With Stratovan's Checkpoint, even scans with distracting artifacts like scatter, blurriness, streaks, or shadows, can be improved for your needs.

In aviation security, advancements in technology are crucial for ensuring safety and efficiency. The High Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) project exemplifies this progress by utilizing millimeter wave (mmW) technology to enhance passenger screening processes.
As highlighted in a recent DHS article feature "Reimagining Imaging at the Airport", "The HD-AIT systems were built to the joint S&T and TSA Open Platform Software Library (OPSL), a government-owned open architecture developed by Sandia National Laboratories and Stratovan Corporation, which was designed to allow the use of cutting-edge algorithms and detection software developed by the best in the business."
Stratovan has been instrumental in driving this innovation. As the original architect of OPSL, the company built and developed a vendor-neutral, standardized platform that fosters interoperability among application developers, equipment providers, and government teams. This framework, combined with the DICOS standard, enables seamless integration of third-party solutions, ensuring that the best technologies are deployed to meet TSA’s mission.
The integration of mmW technology through OPSL demonstrates the importance of open architecture in the aviation security ecosystem. Open architecture not only supports collaboration but also accelerates the deployment of advanced detection algorithms and imaging solutions. This adaptability is essential for addressing evolving threats and improving the overall passenger experience.
Stratovan’s leadership in this field extends beyond development. By providing guidance and expertise, Stratovan ensures that OEMs, third-party vendors, and government agencies can effectively adopt and utilize OPSL and DICOS. This commitment solidifies Stratovan’s role as a critical resource for open architecture solutions in the industry.

Data segmentation is no longer just about drawing boundaries and organizing pixels. It’s about achieving precision and consistency to unlock the full potential of your data.
To train algorithms effectively, you need voxel-level precision—down to the smallest detail. Every annotation matters, and consistency across your dataset is critical to ensure algorithms learn from the right data.
At Stratovan, we understand these challenges. That’s why our Segmentation software suite is designed to take your 3D data segmentation to the next level.
✅ AI-Powered Assistance: Our intelligent, automated assistant works alongside you, helping multiply your efforts, catch errors, and identify oversights before they impact your algorithm's performance.
✅ Ease of Use: Intuitive tools streamline the segmentation process, letting you focus on what matters most—your data.
✅ Enhanced Accuracy: Segment every element of an object, even the ones we struggle to perceive with the naked eye.
Your data is invaluable. Let us help you make it smarter.
Explore how Segmentation Pro can transform your 3D data projects and ensure your algorithms are built on a solid foundation.

Emerging threats are as vital as ever to talk about and understand, especially in the aviation security space.
"Reports are coming out that Russia is allegedly attempting to disrupt North American aviation sectors with the use of incediary devices meant to explode and/or cause fire to breakout on US and Canadian bound flights.
Two incendiary devices were shipped using the German logistics company DHL and ignited at DHL logistics hubs in Leipzig, Germany, and in Birmingham, England, in July, sparking a multinational investigation.
Security officials and sources familiar with the investigation told the Journal that intelligence agencies in Europe determined the explosions were caused by electric massagers implanted with a magnesium-based flammable substance."
This is not a whiteboard theory or a low chance occurrence. There are actors and organizations out there that will continually probe security screening capabilities and try to find the best opportunity to hurt, harm, or disrupt the interests of the United States and/or its allies.
Everything from air cargo to passenger travel is a target....and stories like this emphasize the need for advanced and improved detection capabilities and a robust Open Architecture environment so TSA and other organizations can benefit from the latest and greatest technology out there. Emerging threats won't wait for detection capabilities to catch up....so we have to make it faster and easier to find these things. Being proactive saves lives and materials......so let's keep moving in that direction.
If adversaries with significant knowledge, resource, and ability like Russia are attempting to cause harm then its well past time we shore up and improve our ability to cast a wider and stronger net.
Don't wait for the next catastrophe to prompt the next wave of innovation. Let's keep the skies safe for everyone.

With 18.3 firearms detected per day....93% of them loaded, it's clear that consistent detection of prohibited items is going to be a critical need for the foreseeable future.
Stratovan continues to drive forward and push the envelope for detecting threats and illegal contraband alike. This post from TSA just illustrates how the need continues to be ever-present...and is only one piece of a very large picture.
TSA is committed to keeping travelers, our officers, and airport employees safe, and the number of firearms being discovered at airport security checkpoints remains a significant challenge.
Each firearm brought to a checkpoint, whether by accident or on purpose, presents a threat to other passengers and our employees, and causes delays for the traveler with the firearm. Passengers who travel with a firearm must store it unloaded in a locked, hard-sided case, place it in their checked bag, and declare it to the airline at the airline ticket counter. We cannot stress enough the importance of ensuring firearms are secured properly in the passenger’s checked bag and never brought to the security checkpoint.
This week's blog highlights Stratovan's 3D segmentation expertise. We've talked before about our software suite, but this article focuses on the importance of segmentation and some of the ways Stratovan can assist your team and your projects.
Whether you're in need of the software tools to empower your team, some consultation to guide your project, or you need the help of segmentation specialists to prepare your data for you, Stratovan is ready to help.
