Color Material Discrimination

Color Material Discrimination

Color Material Discrimination is an advanced X-ray imaging technology used in modern baggage and parcel scanners to identify different materials based on their atomic density. By assigning distinct colors to organic, inorganic, and mixed substances, operators can quickly detect potential threats such as explosives, narcotics, weapons, or contraband. This technology significantly improves screening accuracy, reduces human error, and speeds up inspection processes at airports, metro stations, malls, logistics hubs, and critical infrastructure facilities. Color Material Discrimination enhances security operations by delivering clear, intuitive visuals that support fast and confident decision-making.

Color Material Discrimination technology works by analyzing how different materials absorb X-ray energy and displaying them in unique colors on the scanner screen. Typically, organic materials appear in orange, inorganic materials in blue, and mixed or metallic items in green. This visual differentiation allows security personnel to instantly assess bag contents without manual inspection. Widely used in airports, government buildings, commercial complexes, and industrial security checkpoints, this technology strengthens threat detection while maintaining high throughput. It integrates seamlessly with dual-energy and multi-energy X-ray systems, making it a critical component of modern security screening solutions.
