KritiKal Solutions is a technology design house, focused on developing innovative products in ‘Embedded Systems’ and ‘Computer Vision & Image Processing’. Quicksand was commissioned to partner in the design of a Vehicle Underside Scanner that relies on advanced image processing to scan the underside of passing vehicles without the need for them to halt completely. The Vehicle Underside Scanner facilitates faster, secure and easier checks to be carried out on vehicles in potential threat locations. Our role in the project was to design the entire product around the core imaging technology, from the point of view of manufacturing, installation and use. Quicksand also managed production vendors in order to prepare the first prototypes of the product for on-site installation and testing, and created a graphic product identity.

The product was later spun off as an independent company by the name of Kritikal Secure Scan. Quicksand was called in to design the brand identity and initial marketing collaterals for the formal product launch.
