The WG1000 Body Scanner is an effective people screening solution for detecting explosives, narcotics, ceramic weapons and inorganic metal materials.
The system produces high resolution images that enable the operator to easily identify concealed threat and contraband items.
Features
- Hands-Off Screening;
- Typical throughput 150 persons per hour;
- Privacy Protection;
- High Resolution Imaging.
Applications
- Airports;
- Border crossings;
- Embassies;
- Government buildings;
- Military installations;
- Prisons;
- Seaports;
- Security checkpoints;
- VIP security.
Operation
This system has been developed with advanced techniques to protect the privacy of the person being screened while enabling effective detection of threat items.
The system is completely safe for all persons and exceeds the requirements of health authorities worldwide.
This dependable system is easy to use and is the most widely deployed image-based people screening solution.
An organic image is produced as a result of the "Compton Scattering effect"; when the emitted beam contacts organic materials, it is "scattered back" toward the system.
The information is received by high resolution detectors and passed to advanced image processing software to display both organic and inorganic materials to the operator while protecting the privacy of the person being screened.
