TeraSense Terahertz security body scanner

Detection of hidden objects under clothes (weapons, drugs, explosives). With the rising level of violence and terrorism all over the world TeraSense is now receiving many inquiries for security screening systems, similar to those used at the airports, but based on terahertz (THz) imaging technology. Terahertz waves are absolutely harmless to humans, and have no ionizing radiation unlike X-ray machines. These properties of terahertz and sub-terahertz spectral ranges makes T-ray based screening solutions valuable for applications where human health and safety are of utmost importance. The TeraSense team has taken on these challenges seriously and is now ready to offer our own active terahertz-based stand-off security screening system (‘body scanner’). The concept of a body scanner meant for detection of objects concealed under clothes is briefly described at our web-page dedicated toHOMELAND SECURITY applications.
