Abstract: Network architecture for image scanning, providing a scalable, low latency arrangement for multiplexed scanning. A system and method for inspecting baggage having a plurality of scanners for providing images of the baggage and a plurality of workstations for receiving the images. There is workflow software for managing the workflow messages exchanged between the scanners and the workflow management system, and exchanged between the workstations and the workflow management system. The workflow software enables the images to be communicated directly from the scanners to the workstations over an image communications path and the workflow software enables the workflow messages to be communicated to the workflow management system over a workflow management communications channel and there is a results analyzer executing in the workstations and analyzing the images to provide inspection results of the baggage.

Abstract: A display device is provided comprising a transparent panel having a light receiving edge and a face. A plurality of laser etched grooves are formed in the face of the panel such that the grooves increase in depth as the grooves extend away from the light receiving edge of the panel. The grooves include a bottom surface having a contour that matches a contour of the face of the panel. The grooves also include a plurality of diffusive sections and a plurality of internally reflective sections.
