Abstract

Terahertz waves are electromagnetic waves which are frequency bands ranged from 0.1–10 THz. These waves have high transparency to non-metal, and high reflectivity for the metals. Expected to be application to non-contact exploration sensor for the dangerous goods, bomb, knife, and so on, the development to railway and airport is considered. In this paper we aim to construct a terahertz system that can be mounted on the mobile robots, and to visualize the metal object behind these clothes.
