Thruvision

Thruvision develops and manufactures people-screening cameras that use passive terahertz imaging to detect objects hidden under clothing. The cameras can spot metallic and non-metallic items such as weapons, explosives, cash, narcotics and stolen goods, without searching the person.

What Thruvision offers

• Concealed-object detection — screening that works at a distance, with AI-based detection software.
• Staff screening for retail distribution — a way for warehouses to check workers for stolen items without physical searches.
• Security screening — equipment for entrances, customs, prisons, and aviation worker checks.

Who it works with

Government and commercial organisations in more than 30 countries. It names five main markets: retail distribution, customs, prisons, entrance security and aviation worker screening.
