Overview
The WG Body Scanner Micropower Ultra Wideband provides a real-time security solution with superior penetration through clothing, it can be used for any security application that demands extremely high throughput and minimal disruption to persons being screened, they do not have to stop and wait to be scanned or remove their outer garments, this ensures high throughput while enhancing the user experience.
The scanner uses a unique approach, based on a multiple array of micropower ultra-wideband (UWB) radio sensors to provide non-ionizing, high-resolution, three-dimensional real-time body information.
Persons being scanned simply walk through the system at a normal pace, the detection software uses machine-trained algorithms to locate prohibited items of all material types.
It searches for anomalies indicating unusual objects rather than for particular items, enabling it to discover unknown and new threats, which it presents detected anomalies on a symbolic body illustration.

Technology
The scanner uses a novel approach, based on a multiple array of micropower ultrawideband (UWB) radio sensors to provide
non-ionising, high-resolution, three-dimensional information about items carried on the body in real time. The transmitted
power at the scanned person’s location is almost undetectable and several orders of magnitude lower than mobile phone
emissions. Persons being scanned simply walk through the system at a normal
pace.
The detection software uses machine-trained algorithms to locate suspicious items of all material types, it searches
for anomalies and indicates unusual objects rather than particular items, enabling it to discover new and unknown threats.
The scanner displays detects anomalies on a gender-neutral body avatar illustration.
Benefits
Operation
• No need for screened persons to break their stride; system screens them at a natural walking pace
• Detection of potential threats and prohibited items of any material, metallic, ceramic, plastic, liquid, organic, granulate,
powder, etc.
• Unique system design provides full 360° body coverage
• Superior penetration of clothing, eliminating the need to remove outer garments, coats, jackets, leather clothing, work
uniforms, etc. during screening
• Automatic threat detection and immediate display of results on a neutral avatar
• Protection of health due to non-ionizing, extremely low radiation
Detection Characteristics
• Detection of all types of potentially prohibited items metallic objects, ceramics, plastics, powders, liquids, gels, etc
• Real-time detection results
• Unique system design providing full body coverage from all directions while a person walks through Superior penetration
through clothing, so that people do not need to remove their outer garments coats, jackets, leather clothing, etc. during
screening
Benefits for Operating Organisations
• Automatic calibration, allowing continuous operation
• Escape routes through the lanes remain open
• Insensitivity to temperature fluctuations
• Low maintenance costs, thanks to built-in self-diagnosis capabilities and no moving parts
• Low weight and efficient design, enabling positioning flexibility
• Plug & play design for easy servicing
• Real-time processing for extremely high throughput
• Software updates to meet future requirements
• Wheelchair accessibility
Benefits for Operators
• Minimal communications requirements with persons being screened, since they are not required to stop
• No obstacles for wheelchair users
• Simple touchscreen operation
• Unobstructed view of arriving persons
