State-of-the-art XRD -

HALO’s current X-ray diffraction products are designed to operate with any 3rd-party CT system. This provides airport operators with the option to deploy a preferred automated screening lane, with a preferred CT, and combine both with the benefits of HALO XRD. This is a major step forward in overall false alarm performance for the checkpoint. However, there may be a requirement from the regulator that exceeds the detection capability of the CT primary screening system. HALO is working to address this challenge with a unique solution.

Say hello to ONYX -

• A world first ONYX detection system acquiring CT and XRD data simultaneously on a single rotating gantry.

• Significantly improved XRD signal-to-noise performance through XRD back-projection, reconstruction, and object segmentation (analogous to CT performance improvement over static projection X-ray).

• A small footprint CT/XRD system in a single enclosure.

• Improved detection performance by leveraging co-located CT and XRD imaging domains.

• Ultra-low single digit false alarm rates.

The ONYX concept will develop a full engineering prototype having both CT and XRD components co-located on the same rotating gantry to generate geometrically aligned CT and XRD voxel data simultaneously. This combination of 3D CT and 3D XRD information provides next-generation datasets from which the highest threat detection performance can be achieved with the lowest levels of false alarms.

ONYX systems will work with any baggage handling provider to enable the best concept of operations for all airports.

Find out how your airport can have the highest performance checked baggage solution with ultra-low false alarms.
