The CyScan system displays different symbols and colours for each type of target.
Laser Position Reference Sensors can detect all manner of reflector targets. Prisms, Tube
Targets as well as other reflective objects. This can lead to false targets being identified
from reflective objects located near the actual reflector. For example, a reflective jacket
worn by a worker being selected for tracking.
Guidance Marine have solved this problem by creating a patent pending Absolute
Signature (AS) technology. When a CyScan AS sensor is used in conjunction with an AS
prism, the system can uniquely identify the AS prism target from all the clutter of other
reflective objects in the scene. No other laser sensor can do this. AS prisms appear as
regular reflective objects to other types of sensor. For more information on how this works,
please see the CyScan AS Installers Guide.
Here are the symbols shown for each type of target:
Target Type
Tracked
Untracked
Missing
AS Targets
Non-AS Targets
Untracked targets size is affected by the strength of the reflection. A weaker reflection will
appear smaller in the Dashboard. Conversely a tracked target will appear as a full size
symbol.
