Abstract
A system, method, and frame structure detect radiation and identify materials associated with radiation that has been detected. An entity to be examined is determined to have entered between a frame structure. A set of radiation data is received from a set of radiation sensors mechanically coupled to a portion of the frame structure. The set of radiation sensors includes multiple radiation sensors situated in a horizontal configuration with respect to each other and a direction of travel through the frame structure associated with the entity currently being examined. At least one histogram is generated based on the set of radiation data. The at least one histogram is compared to a plurality of spectral images associated with known materials. The at least one histogram is determined to substantially match at least one of the plurality of spectral images. Personnel are notified that the at least one radiation source is a hazardous material.
