ABSTRACT:
A system for scanning the interior of a cargo container includes a propagator device for producing a magnetic field at each of (I) positions adjacent a first side of a cargo container and a detector device for detecting magnetic field strength at each of (J) positions adjacent a second side. The (I) positions are spaced apart in a direction generally parallel to a Y axis of a Cartesian coordinate system and components are included for mapping information about magnetic field strength at each of the (J) positions for each of (K) positions of the cargo container as it passes between the propagator and detector devices in a direction generally parallel to an X axis. Spaced apart orthogonal propagator and detector elements may be disposed in vertical columns adjacent the cargo container, and computerized control components may be used to map and process the information and to produce and display an image. The system may include a second propagator-detector pair disposed horizontally for mapping information for the X-Z plane and that information may be used to shade the X-Y plane image or to produce an X-Z plane image.
