System for controlling a person (P), characterized in that it comprises: a kiosk (10) with an analysis zone (16) destined to accommodate a person (P) to control, a frame (30) disposed inside the kiosk (10), the frame having a hollow (32), a plurality of sensors (31) disposed on the frame (30), each sensor being able to collect information from a portion of the hollow (32) and to generate signals representative of the information, an actuator (20) for translating the frame (30) inside the kiosk (10), a frame envelop (33) being defined by the translation of the hollow (32) when the frame (30) is translated, the analysis zone being included in the frame envelop, a processing unit (60) for analysing the signals generated by each of the plurality of sensors (31) and to detect from the signals the possible presence of searched items within the analysis zone (16).
System for controlling a person (P), characterized in that it comprises:
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the plurality of sensors (31) is arranged on the frame (30) so that, when the frame is translated, the plurality of sensors sweeps an entire surface of the person extending from the head to the feet, provided the person (P) is standing entirely within the analysis zone (16).
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the kiosk (10) comprises one or several guides (11) for guiding the frame (30) along a vertical trajectory when the frame (30) is translated by the actuator (20).
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the kiosk (10) comprises a ceiling (13) with a top housing (132) for accommodating the frame, the actuator (20) being able to translate the frame into the top housing (132).
System according to the preceding claim, wherein the ceiling (13) comprises at least one top calibration reference source (131) for recalibrating at least one of the plurality of the sensors (31) when the frame (30) is in the top housing (132).
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the kiosk (10) comprises a floor (12) with a bottom housing (122) for accommodating the frame (30), the actuator (20) being able to translate the frame into the bottom housing.
System according to the preceding claim, wherein the floor (12) further comprises at least one bottom calibration reference source (131), for recalibrating at least one of the plurality of sensors (31) when the frame (30) is in the bottom housing (122).
System according to one of the preceding claims, further comprising detecting means (14) destined to detect whether a person (P) to control is entirely within a specific portion of the frame envelop (33).
System according to the preceding claim, wherein the actuator (20) is able to stop the translation of the frame (30) in case the detecting means (14) detect that a person (P) is not entirely within a specific section of the frame envelop (33).
System according to the preceding claim, further comprising means (70) for controlling the plurality of sensors (31) and the actuator (20), wherein the detecting means (14) are further able to provide a detecting result when a person (P) to control is within the analysis zone (16) so that an analysis is started automatically when the person (P) is within the analysis zone (16).
System according to the preceding claim, further comprising means (70) for controlling the plurality of sensors (31) and the actuator (20), wherein the detecting means (14) are further able to provide a detecting result when a person (P) to control is in an analysis position so that an analysis is started automatically when the person (P) is in an analysis position.
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the kiosk (10) comprises a floor (12) and wherein the detecting means (14) comprise at least one feet position indicator on the floor (12).
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the frame (30) is of substantially rectangular shape.
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the frame is in a substantially horizontal position.
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the plurality of sensors (31) is able to collect information on a plurality of physical units, the sensors (31) comprising at least one sensor among:
System according to the preceding claim, wherein the plurality of sensors further comprises at least one optical sensor (317) for detecting a distance between the frame (30) and a person (P) to control, so that the processing unit (60) is able determine a silhouette of the person (P) to control when the frame (30) is translated by the actuator (20).
System according to the preceding claim, wherein the processing unit (60) is further able to estimate the location of possibly searched items on the silhouette of a person (P) to control.
System according to one of the preceding claims, further comprising a metal detector (50).
System according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the kiosk (10) comprises at least one wall (15) situated in the frame envelop (33).
Method for controlling a person (P), characterized in that it comprises:
Method according to the preceding claim, further comprising:
