Practical Implementation of Motion-Robust Radar Imaging and Whole-Body Weapon Detection for Walk-Through Security Screening
Summary :
Radar-based sensing and concealed weapon detection technologies have been attracting attention as a measure to enhance security screening in public facilities and various venues. For these applications, the security check must be performed without impeding the flow of people, with minimum human effort, and in a non-contact manner. We developed technologies for a high-throughput walk-through security screening called Invisible Sensing (IVS) and implemented them in a prototype system. The IVS system consists of dual planar radar panels facing each other and carries out an inspection based on a multi-region screening approach as a person walks between the panels. Our imaging technology constructs a high-quality radar image that compensates for motion blur caused by a person's walk. Our detection technology takes multi-view projected images across the multiple regions as input to enable real-time whole-body screening. The IVS system runs its functions by pipeline processing to achieve real-time screening operation. This paper presents our IVS system along with these key technologies and demonstrates its empirical performance.
