  • the following disclosure is provided in order to enable a person having ordinary skill in the art to practice the invention.
  • Language used in this specification should not be interpreted as a general disavowal of any one specific embodiment or used to limit the claims beyond the meaning of the terms used therein.
  • the general principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments and applications without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
  • the terminology and phraseology used is for the purpose of describing exemplary embodiments and should not be considered limiting.
  • the present invention is to be accorded the widest scope encompassing numerous alternatives, modifications and equivalents consistent with the principles and features disclosed.
  • details relating to technical material that is known in the technical fields related to the invention have not been described in detail so as not to unnecessarily obscure the present invention.
  • FIG. la shows an automated single-flow personnel screening system 100 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
  • System 100 comprises a X-ray scanner 110 for scanning people along with a plurality of automated gates/doors positioned before and after the scanner 110 to guide and direct a flow of people through the system 100.
  • scanner 110 is a dual-sided backscatter X-ray people screening system such as the Rapiscan Secure 1000 Single Pose system commercially manufactured by the assignee of the present application.
  • the people screening system can be any screening system capable of conducting an interrogation of a person and his or her belongings.
  • Such screening systems can include any of the systems disclosed in United States Patent Numbers 5,181,234; 6,094,472; 7,418,077; and 7,660,388; United States Patent Application Numbers 11/032,314; 12/262,631; 12/344,162; 12/024,320; 12/142,978; and United States Provisional Patent Application Numbers 61/313,773; 61/313,772; 61/261,818; and 61/262,176, which are all incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
  • system 100 is capable of managing a single stream of people and comprises at least three automated gates/doors to direct the flow of personnel.
  • the automated gates/doors comprise a first gate 105 situated prior to the scanner 110 that acts to create, in combination with side walls 111 an entry area 109 to the system 100 ensuring, for example, that only one person at a time enters the scanner 110.
  • Gate 105 opens when a person approaches and then closes when the person passes the open gate 105, remaining closed at least while the person is being scanned.
  • Second and third gates 115, 120 are located immediately after the scanner 110 to direct the person, who is held in hold area 112 post scan, in one of two different areas 135 or 122 based on the outcome of automatic scan.
  • Optional fourth and fifth gates 125, 130 located further downstream from the scanner 110, direct the scanned person, who is held in hold area 122, in one of two different directions 135 or 145, respectively.
  • An operator 102 can view scanned image, from scanner 110, to ascertain if the image scan is benign or comprises anomaly - in case the system 100 is unable to automatically provide clearance to the person.
  • the operator 102 is presented with an avatar (instead of an actual X-ray image of the scanned person comprising anatomical details) with anomaly, if present, superimposed on the avatar. The use of the avatar allows for maintaining of the scanned person's privacy.
  • gate 105 comprises two panels 108, which are a left panel and a right panel, that open and close in a coordinated fashion.
  • the panels 108 are hinged to side walls 111 that extend from each of the gate panels 108 to X-ray scanner 110 to create an enclosed area 109.
  • the gate 105 opens automatically a) based upon a signal received from an infrared sensor, or other type of motion sensor, that determines when a person is sufficiently physically proximate to the gate panels 108 and b) if the system 100 indicates that another person is not in the personnel X-ray scanner 110 and, optionally, not in the exit hold area 112. The gate 105 can then automatically close once a motion sensor detects the person has passed into entry area 109.
  • the gate 105 can be a unitary structure (made of a large single panel), can be a rotating or revolving door, can be solid, can be transparent, or can be made of any material known to persons of ordinary skill in the art.
  • gate 120 and gate 115 each comprise a single panel that opens and closes in a coordinated manner.
  • Gate 115 meets left side wall 113a, which extends from the X- ray scanner 110 to create a first portion of the enclosed area 111.
  • gate 120 meets right side wall 113b that extends from the personnel X-ray scanner 110 to create a second portion of the enclosed area 111.
  • Gates 120 and 115 are preferably both hinged to a common location which is physically part of, or attached to, left side wall 116.
  • the common hinge point enables gate 120 and gate 115 to both open out and away from exit area 112, specifically in pathway 135 and into hold area 122, thereby avoiding opening inward and potentially hitting a person standing in exit area 112 and avoiding opening and hitting each other.
  • only one of gates 115, 120 is open at any given time.
  • Either of gate 115 or gate 120 opens preferably in response to an automatically generated or manually generated signal, as further described below.
  • the left wall 113a, gate 115, wall 116a, gate 125, and wall 117a form a contiguous enclosure, when the gates are closed.
  • the right wall 113b, gate 120, wall 116b, gate 130, and wall 117b form a contiguous enclosure, when the gates are closed.
  • Gate 125 is hinged to wall 116a and preferably opens away from hold area 122 into traffic flow area 135.
  • Gate 130 is hinged to either wall 116b or 117b and preferably opens away from hold area 122 into traffic flow area 145.
  • the first gate 105 that automatically opens when the person is in proximity to the gate 105 (provided no other person is in the X-ray screening system 110 or, optionally, exit hold area 112), allowing the person to enter and then automatically closes behind him while the person is being scanned by the scanner 110.
  • Post scan the person steps into hold area 112 while the scanner 110 processes the image scan.
  • the processing of the image scan of the person is solely algorithm-based, without requiring any operator intervention, thereby resulting in an automated clear or no -clear outcome from the scanner 110.
  • a signal is transmitted, in a wired or wireless fashion, to the second gate 115 to thereby cause a motor to automatically open gate 115, keeping the third gate 120 closed. This permits a person in exit area 112 to exit to clearance area 135 from where he is free to exit the entire system 100.
  • a signal is transmitted, in a wired or wireless fashion, to the gate 120 to thereby cause a motor to automatically open gate 120, keeping the gate 115 closed, and the person is directed into hold area 122, as shown in FIG. lc. This permits a person in exit area 112 to exit into hold area 122. It should be appreciated that, after a user passes any gate, a motion sensor senses the user has past the gate and causes the gate to return to a closed position, which is a default position or first position in the system 100.
  • the system will process individuals in a pipeline fashion, permitting more than one adult person to enter the system at a time but only permitting one adult person to be in one defined holding area at one time.
  • one adult person and one child that must be accompanied by an adult when walking through the screening system can be in one defined holding area at one time, but not more than one adult.
  • a disabled adult person and a caregiver or another adult assistant that must accompany the disabled adult when walking (or, say, being pushed on a wheelchair) can be in one defined holding area at one time, but not more than two adults.
  • the system ensures that people are singulated when passing through the system of the present invention.
  • the holding areas are bomb proof thereby effectively enabling singulation of persons carrying threats.
  • an X-ray screening operator 102 reviews the scan image(s) of the person.
  • the scanned image provided to the operator for review is marked or annotated for areas of anomaly.
  • an avatar, marked or annotated for areas of anomaly is presented to the operator for review. If the operator 102 finds that the anomaly, due to which the scanner system 100 had not given an auto-clear, is benign then the operator causes a signal to be transmitted, in a wired or wireless fashion, to gate 125 to thereby cause a motor to open gate 125, keeping gate 130 closed. This directs the person from area 122 into the clearance area 135 where he is free to exit the system 100, as shown in FIG. lc.
  • the operator 102 detects a threat, then instead of causing a signal to be transmitted, in a wired or wireless fashion, to gate 125 to thereby cause a motor to open gate 125, the operator causes a signal to be transmitted, in a wired or wireless fashion, to gate 130 to thereby cause a motor to open gate 130, keeping gate 125 closed.
  • This directs the person towards area 140 where security personnel 145 conduct a further physical search of the person, as shown in FIG. Id.
  • the further physical search of the person includes a thorough search of the area in question. First, the person under inspection will be asked to remove the suspicious item and show it to the operator.
  • the place on the subject's body where the item was located is then subject to a limited area pat -down.
  • the further physical search includes a full hand/pat-down search of the entire person.
  • the operator 102 in one embodiment is stationed within or in proximity to the system 100. In alternate embodiments, the operator 102 is stationed remotely from the system 100 and is able to communicate with system 100 through wired and/or wireless network, as would be evident to those of ordinary skill in the art. Also, to further improve the overall throughput of the system 100, people to be screened are appropriately pipelined, in one embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is a flow chart describing a method of managing screening of people in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
  • a first gate automatically opens 210 thereby letting him into an entry area and the X-ray scanner.
  • the first gate closes behind the person while the scanning system is on. After the scan, the person is made to wait 215 at a first hold area to allow for the scanner to algorithmically process and analyze the scanned images for potential threats. If the person is found to have no suspicious threats, a second gate opens 220 automatically leading the person to a clearance area.
  • a third gate opens 225 instead, keeping the second gate closed, directing the person to wait 230 at a second hold area while an operator reviews the scanned images or an avatar marked/annotated for areas of potential anomaly. If the operator finds the anomaly to be benign a fourth gate opens 235 leading the person to the clearance/exit area. However, if the operator is unable to take a clear decision by reviewing the scan images and suspects an anomaly then a fifth gate opens 240, keeping the fourth gate closed, leading the person to another area where a pat-down hand search is conducted by security personnel.
  • FIG. 3 shows an automated dual-flow personnel screening system 300 in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.
  • System 300 comprises a people X-ray scanner 310 along with a plurality of automated gates/doors before and after the scanner to guide and direct people who approach the system 300 in two streams or pipelines 303, 304.
  • the scanner 110 is a dual-sided backscatter X-ray people screening system such as the Rapiscan Secure 1000 Single Pose system commercially manufactured by the assignee of the present application.
  • system 300 comprises seven automated gates/doors to direct the flow of two streams or pipelines 303, 304 of people.

  • the first gate 305 ensures that only one person, from one of the two streams or pipelines 303, 304, at a time enters the scanner 310 such that the gate 305 opens when a person approaches and closes behind while the person is being scanned.
  • Post scan the scanned person is held in area 312 while the system 300 automatically processes the image scan for threat detection. If the scan image processing indicates that there is no threat or anomaly then an auto -clear signal is generated.
  • fourth gate 325 opens (keeping second and third gates 315, 320 closed) directing the scanned person to move to area 322. While the person is held in area 322, one of the two operators 302 views and analyses the person's scanned image to ascertain anomaly.
  • the scanned image provided to the operator for review is marked or annotated for areas of anomaly.
  • an avatar, marked or annotated for areas of anomaly is presented to the operator for review.
  • the scanned image of the person can be directed to any one of the two operators 302 depending, in one embodiment, on a predetermined alternating sequence or, in another embodiment, simply depending on which operator has fewer number of image scans queued for analysis. If the operator determines that the anomaly is benign then the operator signals fifth and sixth gates 330, 335 to open thereby directing the person to move in any one of two directions 355, 360 leading to a clearance or exit. However, if the operator determines that the anomaly is likely to be a threat then the operator signals seventh gate 340 to open (keeping the fifth and sixth gates 330, 335 closed) thereby directing the person to area 345 where security personnel 350 conduct a hand/pat-down search of the person.
