Digital Barriers uses space technology to spot concealed weapons and suicide bombs


A hi-tech camera invented in Oxford’s world-famous science research facility Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and originally designed to map the Earth’s ozone layer is now being used to find concealed weapons, contraband and suicide bombs.
ThruVision, which can detect the different heat signatures generated by the human body and concealed items, is the only technology of its kind, its inventors claim.
The system can detect threats through multiple layers of clothing, using Terahertz energy, which does not penetrate the body, and can be used at a distance.
