Abstract: A system and method that balances the two competing interests of weapons detection while maintaining full egress capacity at a portal. A two-part weapons detection device is installed at the portal with one portion fixed to the floor at a side of the portal and the other portion is mounted to the door. With the door closed, the requisite weapons detection field can be established. When it becomes necessary to use the full egress capacity, the door can be opened without the need to remove or disengage the other portion. A laser scanner is also mounted at the top of the portal to establish an upper detection field to prevent a perpetrator from passing a weapon above the detection field. This system/method forms a “demising point” for a larger system and method that includes logical and physical building compartments for prioritizing staff protection against an assailant in an affordable manner.

Abstract: Millimeter (mm) waves, in comparison to microwaves, have short wavelengths and can penetrate to few centimeters inside the body. The embodiments herein provide a method and system for millimeter (mm) wave synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging for superficial implant monitoring. The mmWave SAR and consecutive an autofocusing SAR imaging are suitable for a superficial tissue and subsequent continuous implant monitoring due to their smaller form-factor and faster processing coupled with focused dielectric lens. Additionally, a limb topography is approximated for localization of implant region on interest (ROI) in the SAR amplitude image. Further, the method and system provide a bone implant monitoring in order to assess any unwanted mobility or dislocation of the implant, and thus bone health is a critical issue.
