07ED-03-PORT - Portal, Explosive Detecting

Description:

Walk-through/drive-through explosives detection equipment. Walk-through portal detection typically involves the use of millimeter wave or x-ray backscatter. Systems may require humans to stop and pose for interrogation or may be true walk-through. Drive-through portals typically utilize x-ray transmission. These systems generally do not perform identification of material, detecting anomalies instead; systems may have automated target recognition (ATR) software or require human image interpretation.
