Contributed to the development of a contactless handheld scanner project aimed at enhancing airport security and reducing privacy concerns. The project involved utilizing terahertz imaging to detect metallic and non-metallic objects hidden under clothing without physical contact. Focused on overcoming challenges associated with terahertz cameras, such as low resolution, narrow field of view, and high noise levels. Specifically, participated in the development of image reconstruction and sensor calibration algorithms to address these obstacles. The objective was to create a portable system capable of detecting potential threats without compromising privacy or resorting to intrusive body searches. The overall goal was to provide security staff with an effective tool for maintaining public safety in high-traffic areas without inconveniencing travelers.
