Experiments on Material Recognition for 8 Mev Customs Inspection System for Trucks and Large-scale Containers
نویسنده
چکیده
Series of experiments on material recognition were carried out on a full-scale prototype of customs inspection system for vehicles and large-scale containers developed by Efremov Research Institute. The 8 MeV linear electron accelerator operating in 4-8 MeV range dual energy mode was used as an X-ray source. Experimental interlaced images of tested samples and real cargo container were processed and visualized by advanced software. The special palettes representing integral absorption and Zcharacteristics of cargo material were used for visualization. Some images are given.

Recent Developments in Fast Neutron Radiography for the Interrogation of Air Cargo Containers
There is a growing need to rapidly scan bulk air cargo for contraband such as illicit drugs and explosives. Ideally, cargo containers must be imaged without unpacking and with scan times of less than one minute. Fast neutron techniques are particularly attractive for screening cargo as they can be used to determine cargo composition. The Commonwealth Science and Industrial Research Organisation...

Since 2002 the Commonwealth Science and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has been working with the Australian Customs Service to develop a scanner capable of directly imaging airfreight containers in 1-2 minutes [1-4]. The scanner combines fast neutron and gamma-ray radiography (FNGR) to provide high-resolution images that include information on material composition. By collecting trans...
متن کاملAcxis – Automated Comparison of X-ray Images for Cargo Scanning
The ongoing FP7 project “ACXIS Automated Comparison of X-ray Images for cargo Scanning” delivers enhanced inspection procedures for customs. A manufacturer independent reference data base for X-ray images of illegal and legitimate cargo is developed. One of the X-ray image recording work flow is to use 3D-CT data of illegal cargo mockups and to artificially generate arbitrary X-ray projections....
