摘要: The present specification discloses methods and systems for automatically processing an electronic data structure by receiving the electronic data structure that has categories associated therewith, determining, for a first subset of the categories, to automatically update a first set of states associated with the electronic data structure without routing the electronic data structure to a stakeholder, and determining, for a second subset of the categories, to route the electronic data structure to at least one stakeholder. After routing a portion of the electronic data structure to at least one stakeholder and receiving input from that stakeholder, a second set of states is updated based upon the received input and data is generated that is visually representative of each of the first set of states and second set of states.

摘要: The present specification describes a system for eliminating X-ray crosstalk between a plurality of X-ray scanning systems and passive radiation detectors. The system includes a frequency generator for generating a common operational frequency, a high-energy X-ray source or scanning system coupled with the frequency generator for receiving the common operational frequency and configured to modify the pulse repetition frequency of the high-energy X-ray source or scanning system in order to synchronize with the common operational frequency and a low-energy X-ray scanning system and/or passive radiation detection system coupled with the frequency generator for receiving the common operational frequency and having a processing module configured to remove data associated with the common operational frequency at an instance of time if the high-energy X-ray source or scanning system has emitted X-rays at the instance of time.

摘要: The present specification discloses a covert mobile inspection vehicle with a backscatter X-ray scanning system that has an X-ray source and detectors for obtaining a radiographic image of an object outside the vehicle. The systems preferably include at least one sensor for determining a distance from at least one of the detectors to points on the surface of the object being scanned, a processor for processing the obtained radiographic image by using the determined distance of the object to obtain an atomic number of each material contained in the object, and one or more sensors to obtain surveillance data from a predefined area surrounding the vehicle.

摘要: The present specification discloses systems and methods for identifying and reporting contents of a tanker, container or vehicle. Programmatic tools are provided to assist an operator in analyzing contents of a tanker, container or vehicle. Manifest data is automatically imported into the system for each shipment, thereby helping security personnel to quickly determine container contents. In case of a mismatch between container contents shown by manifest data and the contents as ascertained from the scanning system, the container or vehicle may be withheld for further inspection.

摘要: In embodiments, the present invention describes the use of three-dimensional (3D) stationary gantry X-ray computed tomography systems to scan animals/livestock for enabling improved management of animal farming processes, functions or events. The present invention also discloses the use of 3D stationary gantry X-ray computed tomography systems for carcass screening and improved abattoir production planning, execution, and automation. In various embodiments, use of the scanning technology supports high throughput, automated, meat-processing lines with reduced manual labor, objectively measured product quality and improved food safety standards. In embodiments, the present specification discloses the use of 3D X-ray inspection to generate an image of an entire carcass and sections of the carcass, during the stages of dissection, final product preparation, and packaging of the carcass.

摘要: The present specification discloses a high speed scanning system for scanning cargo carried by rail. The system uses of a two-dimensional X-ray sensor array with, in one embodiment, a cone-beam X-ray geometry. The pulse rate of X-ray source is modulated based on the speed of the moving cargo to allow a distance travelled by the cargo between X-ray pulses to be equal to the width of the detector, for a single energy source, and to half the width of the detector for a dual energy source. This ensures precise timing between the X-ray exposure and the speed of the passing object, and thus accurate scanning of cargo even at high speeds.

摘要: An apparatus for detecting constituents in a sample includes first and second drift tubes defining first and second drift regions, and a controllable electric field device within a fragmentation region coupled to the first and second drift tubes. The apparatus also includes a first ion shutter positioned between the first drift and fragmentation regions. The apparatus further includes a control system configured to regulate the first ion shutter, thereby facilitating injection of a selected portion of ions from the first drift region into the fragmentation region. The control system is also configured to regulate the controllable device to modify the selected portion of ions to generate predetermined ion fragments within the fragmentation region, thereby facilitating injection of a selected portion of the predetermined fragmented ions into the second drift region. A method of detecting constituents in a sample is facilitated through such an apparatus.
