The system will eventually upload iris data to a state repository that will in turn upload the data to the FBI's NGI database. The fact that the system doesn't require touching the individual is an advantage in a prison setting, Covington says, and the technology requires minimal staff training.

The system will eventually upload iris data to a state repository that will in turn upload the data to the FBI's NGI database. The fact that the system doesn't require touching the individual is an advantage in a prison setting, Covington says, and the technology requires minimal staff training. "The quality of the images is much better now," he says. "And the machines are more user-friendly and more durable. {They're cop-proof.}"

该系统最终会将虹膜数据上传到州资料库,州资料库进而将数据上传到联邦调查局的NGI数据库。科温顿表示,该系统不需要接触个人,这在监狱环境下是个优点。这项技术基本上不大需要培训员工。他说:“现在图像质量好得多。设备对用户更友好,更耐用。XXXX。”

如果没理解错的话,这个cop应该是指警察。但cop-proof是啥意思呢?

不好意思,Kudoz上暂时无法提问。敬请见谅!

但没有对警察贬低或藐视的意思。 一般警安人员都可操作无误。

It basically means that it (mostly) takes the human factor out of the equation, i.e., you can't screw it up. In other words, dependency on the operator's skill level is kept to a minimum. The majority of people who operate this system just happen to be law-enforcement officers, hence "cop-proof".

简单直接一点 Dec 16, 2013

The fact that the system doesn't require touching the individual is an advantage in a prison setting, Covington says, and the technology requires minimal staff training. "The quality of the images is much better now," he says. "And the machines are more user-friendly and more durable. {They're cop-proof.}"
在监狱环境下,不需要人与人之间的直接接触是一项优势,而且,该技术需要投入的人员培训微乎其微.目前的图象质量比以前要好很多, 该机器不会对使用者造成任何问题,质量也更耐久.(保护警察型的)

Incorrect is incorrect Dec 17, 2013

你自己都提出waterproof這個字了, 原來waterproof一字中受到保護的是水?

foolproof (adj.) Look up foolproof at Dictionary.com
also fool-proof, 1902, American English, "safe against the incompetence of a fool," from fool (n.) + proof.

換成Cop-proof, 其實即是safe against the incompetence of a cop.


還有, "more user-friendly" 與「该机器不会对使用者造成任何问题」完全是兩回事。

This is the source of the article. You can judge by yourself.
链接文章中,有相关图片,你可以看一下,是不是警察和犯人是隔开的。
另外那个“更加用户友好”的翻译的确是我疏忽了,没有将比较级表达出来。这个我承认。

应该是 foolproof 的意思 Dec 17, 2013

这里的 cop-proof 就是和前面的 user-friendly 对应,说的是这种系统操作方便,容易上手。所以就算(计算机知识不太好的)警察,也可以快速上手操作。
