The invention relates to a method and a system for non-intrusive inspection of cargo objects: motor vehicles, containers and train wagons, without the direct intervention of the human factor. The method according to the invention consists in making a complete X-ray of a vehicle to be inspected, except for the driver's cab, while it is driven by a driver through a scanning tunnel at a speed of 10 to 15 km / h, the image resulting from the scanned vehicle being monitored being displayed on an operator monitor while creating a single-file computerized file containing the scanned image and the vehicle's photographic image. The system according to the invention consists of a mobile scanning unit installed on a carriage () on which is mounted an arm () containing detector areas () specific to the type of penetrating radiation used; In the transport mode, the arm () is folded to provide a minimum gauge that allows either to fit the vehicle in the legal public transport size or to containerize the system into ISO standard containers, and in the scan mode, the arm () extends, Turning back, supporting, at the lower end, parallel to the area where the detector areas () are located, a penetrating radiation source (); the scanning system further includes a remote control mobile center () which is positioned outside an exclusion zone () and has the role of remote controlling all the processes involved in non-intrusive inspection within the mobile control center () - there is a subsystem ( |
