VI7 – Astrophysics

With a tunnel opening of 62.1 cm x 41.7 cm (W x H) and a single 180kV generator, the VI7 generates a series of 7 high quality images of the screened object, each showcasing a different angle. The VI7 features a display that rotates through 7 views, each showing the same bag from a distinctive, unique vantage point. It therefore enhances the operator’s 3D awareness and overall depth perception. Items that may have been hidden in one view become clearly visible in another. The VI7 “surround view” technology successfully heightens the operator’s image interpretation and object identification while speeding throughput and reducing the need for a secondary search. Developed with funding from the DHS Science and Technology Directorate, under technical direction of the Transportation Security Laboratory Human Factors Program.
