Abstract
A system for simulating X-ray scanners includes a first memory for storing a database of component X-ray images, a second memory for storing an instruction set and respective relative opacities of the stored component images, and a computer coupled to the first and second memories and responsive to the stored instruction set for creating composite X-ray images from the stored component images. A display is coupled to the computer for displaying at least one of the composite X-ray images as a displayed image. A data entry keyboard is coupled to the computer to permit data to be entered thereto in accordance with the stored instruction set. A selection device is coupled to the computer for comparing the selected component image with a subset of the stored component images representing hazardous objects so as to determine whether the selected component image matches one of the component images in the subset. The system further includes a reporting device coupled to the computer for reporting whether a match occurred.
