BALTIMORE, MD--(Marketwire - Oct 11, 2012) - View Systems, Inc. (OTCBB: [ VSYM ]), a weapons detection and access control provider, announced today the enhanced, new ViewScan VS-1000, has been successfully selected for installation in 17 Detroit Public Schools. The VS-1000, introduced at the annual ASIS Security Conference and Exposition in Philadelphia, has been chosen by multiple companies to be used for access control. The first installs are scheduled for the Detroit market. Michigan has mushroomed into a significant profit region for the company. The new improved VS-1000 senses the smallest readings without being affected by environmental disturbances and structural elements such as reinforced concrete and metal door frames. Unlike ordinary Metal detectors the ViewScans can be placed directly next to each other and still function correctly. Chosen for use at the National Democratic Convention, the ViewScans functioned flawlessly.
