Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011020148A1] The present application describes an inspection system for detecting a threat within an object. The inspection system has a conveyor belt for moving said object in a first direction through a detection volume, at least two inspection subsystems positioned along the first direction, where at least one inspection subsystem transmits electromagnetic pulses to the object and wherein both detect electromagnetic fields generated by the object. A computer receives data indicative of the detected electromagnetic fields, generates a signal based upon the data and compares the signals to predetermined thresholds.
