The Electronics Research Building is a controlled-access facility. Once in the building, only authorized persons who have signed a non-disclosure agreement are permitted in the Test Center. Eight pre-installed EAS systems representative of current aisle and exit class equipment provide exposure fields. The exposure systems will be updated as new technologies become available.
Space is available for up to four additional systems to be installed.
Other exposure systems such as label deactivators can also be accommodated. There are manual and computer controlled positioning capabilities available to support a wide variety of evaluations. The automated system consists of a linear positioner which precisely places the medical device under test at chosen locations within the exposure fields of the EAS Systems. Static and Dynamic tests are performed. All operating parameters of the linear positioner can be completely computer controlled.
