Designing and building new equipment and technologies in Non-Destructive Testing and Evaluation domains. Full development of prototype instrumentation, including electrical, electronically, mechanical, hardware and software design and building. Data acquisition and computerized measurements Applied Physics and engineering in X and Gamma ray Industrial Tomography. Turnover : 0,34 million EURO Collaboration Title : Advanced Industrial Tomograph for baggage control Type Details : Development of Advanced Industrial Tomograph (AIT) with penetrating radiation destined for automates explosives and weapons detections in airports baggage, mail packages and for anti-terrorist point control. The design is based on the implementation of the following main key-solutions:-The dual energy method for identifying the atomic number (Z) and the density (ñ) of scanned objects, for obtaining a high accuracy of scanned objects materials identification.-Inside baggage 3D objects shape reconstruction by using a direct and fast 3D tomographic reconstruction method.-2D and 3D Pattern recognition method for the objects shape analysis.-Building a database of forbidden patterns, correlated with the database with forbidden constituents (Z and ñ) for dissemination in all baggage control systems.-High speed scanning method based on simultaneous use of multi-line dual energy detectors and multiple radiation sources.-High computational speed by intensively use of the parallel processors technology.-A mixture between traditional way of radioscopic inspection and tomographic gradual investigation for speeding-up the entire process.
