Q96 (CISF/2018) Science & Technology › Space & Defence Technology

What is the full form of X-BIS ?

Explanation

The full form of X-BIS is X-ray Baggage Inspection System. It is a critical security technology used primarily at airports, railway stations, and high-security installations to screen the contents of luggage non-intrusively. The system works by passing X-rays through the baggage; different materials (organic, inorganic, and metals) absorb radiation at different rates, allowing the system to generate color-coded images for security personnel to identify potential threats such as weapons, explosives, or contraband. In India, agencies like the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and the Airports Authority of India (AAI) utilize these systems extensively to ensure public safety and security.
