An imaging apparatus 10 for generating an image of a subject including a scanning arrangement which includes an energy emitting source 20 and a detector 22 housed within a housing 12. The housing defines a scanning zone 24 in which the subject is operatively positioned for scanning A displacing arrangement 36 which includes a U-shaped belt-and-pulley drive arrangement is configured to displace the scanning arrangement relative to the housing 12 in a scanning direction. The housing 12 has a first door and second door defining a substantially linear pathway through the scanning zone. A motor 38 and horizontal drive belts 40 are disposed below the scanning zone and are not displaced relative to the housing in the scanning direction in which the energy emitting source and detector are displaced during scanning such that the displacing arrangement does not restrict or impede movement of the subject through the scanning zone.

The present disclosure provides a portable terahertz security inspection apparatus, including: a carrying body; a terahertz emitting device arranged on the carrying body, wherein the terahertz emitting device includes a terahertz signal source and an emitting unit connected to the terahertz signal source and configured to emit a terahertz wave; a terahertz detector arranged on the carrying body and configured to receive the terahertz wave reflected from an inspected object; a data acquisition and processing system arranged on the carrying body and connected to the terahertz detector, wherein the data acquisition and processing system is configured to receive a scan data for the inspected object from the terahertz detector and generate a terahertz image; and a display device connected to the data acquisition and processing system and configured to receive and display the terahertz image from the data acquisition and processing system. The portable terahertz security inspection apparatus does not need to be equipped with a mechanical scanning system, so that a volume and a weight of the terahertz security inspection apparatus may be greatly reduced, and a security inspector may move the terahertz security inspection apparatus manually to perform scanning of the imaging area.

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed toward systems and methods relating to security screening. For example, a screening system includes a chamber configured to accommodate a user to be screened, and a chamber scanner. The chamber scanner is configured to scan the user to identify whether the user is carrying an undivested item that needs to be divested. The chamber is configured to release the user to proceed from the chamber to a secure area, upon confirmation that no undivested items are to be divested.

A linear accelerator in data communication with a computing device and a programmable logic controller and including a magnetron, an electron gun that is configured to direct an accelerated beam of electrons at a target thereby generating a beam of X-rays, a primary collimator positioned beyond the target in a direction of the beam of X-rays, a secondary collimator coupled to an end of the primary collimator at which the beam of X-rays exit the primary collimator, an attenuating element and a calorimeter positioned within the primary collimator, and a reference detector positioned within the secondary collimator and configured to measure an X-ray radiation dose output of the linear accelerator on a pulse-by-pulse basis.

A method, software and apparatus are disclosed to improve security by helping determine whether a bag contains a prohibited item. A CT scan of a bag is performed to generate an image. An artificial intelligence algorithm is performed to classify portions of an image as normal and portions of said image as abnormal. A first type of image processing for said normal portion(s) of said image. A second type of image processing for said abnormal portion(s) of said image wherein said second type of image processing is different from said first type of image processing. The normal portion(s) of the image are displayed with said first type of image processing and said abnormal portion(s) of the image are displayed with said second type of image processing to a TSA Agent for analysis of said image. In the preferred embodiment, the TSA Agent will perform the analysis on an extended reality head display unit.

A security inspection system and method are disclosed. The security inspection system comprises: at least one baggage cart comprising at least one compartment for containing a baggage and configured to pass through a scanning channel; and a scanning device configured to inspect the baggage cart passing through the scanning channel and containing the baggage, at least based on a traveling speed of the baggage cart.

The present disclosure relates to a security inspection system. The system may include a re-inspection apparatus and a monitoring platform. The monitoring platform may receive information relating to a suspect article in a package and information relating to an electronic tag attached to the package. The monitoring platform may also generate re-inspection instructions for the package based on the information relating to the suspect article and the information relating to the electronic tag, and send the re-inspection instructions to the re-inspection apparatus. The re-inspection apparatus may re-inspect the suspect article in the package based on the re-inspection instructions. The information relating to the suspect article may be generated and sent by a security inspection machine. The information relating to the electronic tag may be generated and sent by a labelling apparatus. The package with the electronic tag may be delivered to the re-inspection apparatus by a distribution apparatus.

A system for enabling a plurality of different artificial intelligence models to be applied to image data acquired from one or more inspection systems. The system is configured to receive an instruction from an operator workstation to apply one of a plurality of different artificial intelligence (AI) models to an image representative of cargo. Further, an application program interface specific to that one AI model, is acquired. Further, the image is submitted to the AI model using the application program interface and data representative of a degree to which the cargo in the image corresponds to an expected type of cargo based upon descriptive data associated with the cargo, is received from the AI model. Thereafter, the data representative of the degree to which the cargo in the image corresponds to the expected type of cargo is transmitted to the operator workstation, to be displayed to an operator.
