Abstract: A method for capturing images of a person for a security screening is provided. A spatial position of the person is detected using a support sensor. Information indicative of the detected spatial position of the person is then received and used to steer a field of view of at least a first set of imaging heads towards the detected spatial position of the person. The at least a first set of imaging heads includes at least one passive imaging head and at least one active imaging head, wherein the passive imaging head captures separate images corresponding to at least two frequency bands at a same time. Images of the person are then captured with the at least a first set of imaging heads.
