FOCUS AREA: detection of illegal/hazardous goods, cargo inspection
The purpose of the project is to develop and validate a new high-technology CRT (Cosmic-ray tomography) scanner for border guard, customs and other Law Enforcement Agencies, that enables safe and fast screening, detection and identification of hazardous, illegal and contraband goods as well as hidden persons in up to 20’ ISO containers.
The detection capability is based on using high accuracy sensors for particle tracking in combination with beyond state-of-the art tomographic reconstruction and material classification algorithms.
Foreseeable Outcomes:
- Development and validation of a Multi-Functional Passive Detection System (Cosmic-ray tomography scanner) for fast and safe inspection of large number of cargos.
