Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1410991A2] The method involves examining the packaging (11,23) for the presence of an object with a sensor (19) at least near a test wall for emitting and receiving electromagnetic waves that penetrate the relevant test wall, especially electromagnetic waves in the microwave range. The packaging is moved past the sensor by a conveyor belt and is slid onto a supporting plate. An Independent claim is also included for a device for checking the contents of closed packaging.
