Abstract

The invention relates to a screening system and a method thereof. A method of operating the screening system include applying an electromagnetic field to a specimen in a region at least partially enclosed by electromagnetic shielding and measuring an output from a sensor, wherein the output is induced by an interaction of the electromagnetic field and the specimen. The method also includes dislodging trace particles from the specimen within the region, collecting the trace particles, and identifying the trace particles. The method further includes evaluating an association of the specimen with a substance based on the measured sensor output and the identified trace particles.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments described herein relate generally to screening systems and, more particularly, to a screening system and operation for use at a passenger terminal to improve the detection of explosives, drugs, or other contraband during passenger handling at a transit station method of the system. Background technique [0002] To help deter passengers boarding airplanes or other vehicles from carrying concealed weapons, explosives, or other contraband, passengers are screened before boarding the vehicle. For example, passengers arriving at an airport terminal are subject to identification procedures and are required to walk through metal detectors. In addition, passengers' checked and carry-on luggage may be screened for evidence of hidden weapons, explosives or other contraband. [0003] While current passenger screening procedures are reliable, there is often no direct screening of passengers for tracer particles of explosives, drugs or other contraban...
