Current cargo requirements • faster screening of consignments
• ability to screen dense and/or thick cargo
• ability to screen small areas of density in a larger consignment
• less reliance on human interpretation
• reduce false positives and the need to open boxes
• screen consignments without further breaking down or reorienting
• density
• image complexity
• health and safety and insurance considerations
• difficult or unattractive to open
