Abstract :
The near filed terahertz wave imaging technology has been applied in security screening for detecting objects concealed under clothes. This paper describes two terahertz wave imaging system that acquires the body image by opto-mechanical scanner. One system is worked at reflective mode. Another system is worked at transitive mode. Results show this system is promising for real security applications.
