ABSTRACT:
A device is provided for inspecting objects, particularly pieces of luggage, for suspicious contents using electromagnetic radiation. The device includes a housing comprised of a support and a closable opening through which an object to be inspected can be placed on a receiving element; a source for electromagnetic radiation and a designated detector array, both of which are arranged in the housing such that an inspection area is located above the receiving element; a positioning aid, which indicates the inspection area to an operator; and an evaluation unit including a computer, where the radiation intensities measured by the detector array are evaluated with respect to suspicious materials.
