Advance RPM Maintenance Operating Reporter (ARMOR)
Description
Advance Radiation Portal Monitor (RPM) Maintenance Operating Reporter (ARMOR) project provides predictive maintenance of RPMs, detecting issues with the equipment before the issue causes the screening lane to be inoperable
Detailed example
The system will provide a listing of malfunctioning RPMs categorized by issue severity and predicted date of failure. The outputs will be used to create service tickets.
AI / analytics pattern
Classical/Predictive Machine Learning: Models trained on data to make predictions or classifications based on identified patterns or relationships.
Automation level / stage
a) Pre-deployment – The use case is in a development or acquisition status.
Expected benefit
ARMOR will shorten time to service/repair/maintenance of radiation portal monitors by two weeks. ARMOR will allow better distribution of resources (travel, spare parts, etc.) and expected cost decrease could be 25-50%. Through decreased outage time, and prediction of equipment degradation, ARMOR will increase radiological/nuclear (R/N) security on US borders.
