It is less invasive than a body frisk or strip search and provides increased detection capabilities over common metal detectors.
combines the capability to detect both metal and non-metal objects with a single system. It even locates very small amounts of metal such as wires, keys, jewellery, metal scraps in quantities as small as a gram. The system also detects plastic and organic material such as explosives, narcotics and high-tech weapons.
Scanning is a simple matter: the subject stands in front of the scanner for a 3 - 8 seconds for front scan, then turns around for 3 - 8 seconds for a rear scan. Computer enhanced images then appear on the video monitor. Side scans can also be conducted for even more thorough inspections.
In addition scanned images can be stored, recalled and copied to a floppy disk for evidence or training (Image Archiving is a standard feature on all ) |
