How to work with the HI-TIP

By means of the HI-TIP systems, complete X-ray images
of fictional baggage items containing threat objects are
automatically projected, at arbitrary intervals, among the
images of real baggage items. Equally, single threat ob-
jects of different kinds are automatically projected on the
real X-ray images of scanned baggage items. You do not
notice the projection process.
 Your task is to detect dangerous or suspect objects and mark them with
 When the conveyors are running, the time you need to evaluate the image and make a decision is limited
to a few seconds (range 1 to 10 s.). If you need more time, stop the conveyors. Usually, the time is auto-
matically extended then (range 0 to 45 s.).

not a real object! If no message appears when actuating
have detected a real, suspect object which has to be rechecked!
