R&S®QPS Walk2000 - walk-through security scanning

The R&S®QPS Walk2000 offers best-in-class detection capabilities beyond simple metal detection. The walk-through metal detectors typically used for venue security cannot cover the ever-evolving range of threats and prohibited items. The R&S®QPS Walk 2000 avoids these shortcomings with a combination of mmWaves and AI algorithms, which allow it to detect a wide range of materials - metals, plastics, liquids, granulates, organics, ceramics and more.

As a walk-through security scanner, the R&S®QPS Walk2000 allows people to move through at their natural walking pace with no need to pause-and-pose. Its short scan times and low false alarm rate minimize queuing and ensure a seamless screening process. The scanner supports a comfortable user experience with:

  • Contactless, respectful screening: minimal need for manual searches
  • Superior penetration of clothing: no need to remove outer garments
  • Easiest screening process: can move through at natural walking speed
  • Safe technology: extremely low power and non-invasive radio waves means that the scanner is 100% safe - even for pregnant women and persons with medical implants
  • Privacy protection: neutral, generic avatar for pinpointing an object’s precise location
  • Open screening environment: no booth
  • Barrier-free architecture: no obstacles for wheelchair users
  • Simplified emergency evacuation: open escape route thanks to large walk-through area and lean architecture

This makes the R&S®QPS Walk2000 an excellent solution for events, especially when it comes to VIP security screening. For example, the R&S®QPS was used at the Munich Security Conference - the world’s leading forum for discussing international security policy.

R&S®QPS201 - airport-grade venue security

For events that require an even higher level of security, Rohde & Schwarz offers the R&S®QPS201. This scanner is used in airports worldwide as well as other high-security locations, such as ammunition depots. It is certified by the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC), the United States’ Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and other supervisory authorities.

Your event security challenges

The R&S®QPS addresses the key challenges of venue security:

  • VIP screening experience
  • Non-intrusive (contactless) visitor screening
  • Screen time
  • Managing high footfall
  • Intuitive operation
  • Shortage of qualified security staff
  • Wide range of threats and prohibited items
  • Protecting privacy and dignity

High-performance event security solutions

The R&S®QPS Walk2000 is based on low power, non-ionizing ultrawideband (UWB) radio sensors and generates high-resolution, three-dimensional information about concealed items carried on the body or in clothing. This information is automatically analyzed to identify anomalies, which are precisely displayed in real time on a generic, gender-neutral avatar.

The R&S®QPS scanners are intuitive for both the scanned persons and the security staff. The devices are exceptionally easy to use and require no special operator skills, extensive training or certification.

For quickly deployable or temporary outdoor security checkpoints, a Mobile Checkpoint Shelter solution is available upon request.
