Handheld Backscatter X-Ray Imager

PX ULTRA Handheld Backscatter X Ray Imaging System

The PX ULTRA (by Videray, distributed by unival group) is a state-of-the-art handheld X-ray imager designed to 'see through' materials such as steel, aluminum, wood, and rubber. It utilizes an industry-leading 160 keV X-ray source to penetrate barriers and create high-resolution images of hidden objects. The system is designed for non-intrusive inspection, allowing operators to detect contraband, weapons, and threats without opening or damaging the target object. It features a built-in screen for immediate image analysis and is built on an Android operating system.

Technical & Functional

Key Features

High Penetration Power

Equipped with a 160 keV X-ray source, capable of penetrating up to 10 mm of steel (and up to 25mm in certain conditions/materials), allowing it to see through thicker walls and barriers than many competitors

Superior Image Quality

Produces high-resolution images with excellent detail, aided by patented optics and 'Infinity Detector' technology for depth in detection

Android Operating System

Runs on Android 9 with the latest security patches, offering an intuitive, smartphone-like user interface

Large Touch Screen

Features a 7-inch diagonal, 700-nit bright color touch screen that supports pinch-to-zoom, image stitching, colorization filters, and on-screen notes

Connectivity

Offers remote connectivity to any device (PC, Mac, iOS, Android) and supports simple Over-The-Air (OTA) updates

Safety Mechanisms

Includes a series of interlocks, visual indicators, and contains no live radiation source (X-rays are only produced when energized)

Line Lasers

Integrated lasers help outline the scan area for precise operation

Use Cases

  • Police & Law Enforcement: Searching vehicles for hidden compartments (traps) containing drugs or money
  • Border Crossings & Customs: Inspecting vehicle panels, tires, and cargo for contraband
  • Airports: Screening unattended baggage or suspicious items
  • Governmental Protection: Securing venues and sweeping for surveillance devices
  • Critical Infrastructure: Inspecting packages and facility perimeters
  • EOD/IED: Assessing potential explosive devices from a safe distance (relative to manual opening)

Integration & Compatibility

  • Data Transfer: Includes a data transfer cable and supports remote connectivity to external devices for image sharing and reporting
  • Software: Multi-language user interface capable, running on a standard Android platform for easy integration with modern IT workflows

Deployment Options

  • Portable: Completely handheld and battery-operated (6 hours operating time)
  • Power: Can run on battery or direct A/C power
