Abstract: The present specification describes security systems for screening threats contained on persons, and more specifically, to an integrated detection system that is highly portable and that employs Enhanced Metal Detection (EMD) along with Advanced Imaging Technology (using backscatter X-ray scanning) to achieve Automated Threat Recognition (ATR) improvements. In particular, the present specification describes a modular inspection system for detecting objects carried by or on a human subject that includes a plurality of sections having an X-ray source, two backscatter X-ray detector panels and at least one metal detector panel; a first strapping means to hold together two of the plurality of sections that are folded and form a portable first case; and a second strapping means to hold together two of the plurality of sections that are folded and form a portable second case such that the first and second cases can be wheeled to and from a checkpoint.

Abstract: The present specification discloses a portable system for inspecting objects. The system includes a housing adapted to be carried by a vehicle, which houses a metal detector and an X-ray scanner and further includes a deployable boom positioned on a top surface of the housing. Operationally, the system is transported to a location, persons or objects are inspected by the metal detector or X-ray scanner and the boom is deployed to inspect external cargo. The integrated portable checkpoint system provides security screening and inspection equipment with increased operational capabilities in one fully integrated package.
