Terrorists, both domestic and foreign, are introducing new and emerging threats in the smuggling of weapons through security checkpoints.
To address these threats, Idaho National Laboratory (INL), through the support of the National Institute of Justice, developed a portal-style concealed weapons detection system that uses passive magnetic sensors.
The system provides a nonintrusive method for rapid detection, location, and archiving of data—including visual data—of potential suspects and weapon threats. For further information, contact Lisa Nate at the INL Office, 208-526-2426.
