Multi‑Mode Portable X‑ray System

The Xpose XP is a next‑generation portable X‑ray system that brings both digital radiography (DR) and computed radiography (CR) into a single, ultra‑light package. Designed for dismounted operations, the three‑piece kit weighs under 7 kg and supports rapid deployment in tight spaces, near real‑time imaging, and single‑shot mosaics of larger targets – all from a safe stand‑off.

Built for law enforcement, military, customs and security personnel, Xpose XP helps teams search and render‑safe explosives, weapons, narcotics and other contraband inside parcels, vehicles, buildings and structures, as well as conduct non‑destructive inspection (NDT) of critical hardware.

Key benefits

• CR + DR in one system: Combines a removable CR imaging plate with a patented DR scanning system, giving operators the flexibility of plate‑based imaging with digital, near real‑time read‑out.
• True dismounted portability: Three‑piece kit – imager, X‑ray source and controller – weighs under 7 kg, with no external antennas, power supplies or cables required for standard operation.
• Imaging from parcels to vehicle panels: Removable imaging plate fits into extremely tight gaps and all the way down to ground level, while a mosaic kit allows tiled single‑shot images for larger targets such as vehicle quarter panels or doors.
• Near real‑time decision‑making: Flat‑panel scanner delivers high‑resolution images in seconds, helping EOD and search teams assess devices and contraband quickly and choose the right render‑safe option.
• Rugged, all‑weather design: Mil‑spec, IP67‑rated flat panel imager is engineered to operate in harsh environments, from hot tarmac to wet or dusty ground.
• Tight integration with XTK: Imaging software is XTK‑ready, with touch‑enabled tools to enhance, annotate and measure images without altering the original data, supporting existing workflows and evidence handling.

Typical applications

• Rapid inspection of suspicious parcels, bags, baggage, boxes and crates.
• VBIED and vehicle search tasks – tyres, wheel arches, quarter panels, fuel tanks and body cavities.
• Building and aircraft inspection – walls, doors, wings and other structural elements.
• EOD and UXO tasks where internal layout must be understood before render‑safe procedures.
• Non‑destructive testing of engineering components, assemblies and structures in the field.

System components

• Xpose XP imager: Rugged flat‑panel imager with integrated wireless communications, replaceable internal battery and removable CR imaging plate for ground‑level and confined‑space shots.
• Golden Engineering X‑ray source: Standard 150 kVp source capable of penetrating more than 13 mm of steel in a single exposure; penetration up to around 25 mm of steel is achievable with higher‑power sources. A 40° beam angle supports close‑in operation around vehicles and structures.
• Controller: Rugged notebook, Toughbook® or tablet computer running Leidos imaging software. User‑supplied Windows® controllers are supported, including XTK®‑equipped devices.
• Mosaic kit (optional): XTK‑compliant carrier for up to four CR plates, enabling large, single‑shot mosaic images of doors, panels and other oversized targets.
• Transport cases & backpack: Supplied in a weather‑resistant Pelican® case with custom foam for all components; optional backpack carrier available for dismounted patrols.

Imaging performance & software

• Resolves fine detail down to approximately 0.08 mm (AWG 40) wire, and 0.40 mm (AWG 26) wire through about 13 mm of steel.
• DR resolution up to around 3.5 line pairs/mm, supporting detailed assessment of switches, firing trains and object construction.
• Total penetration capability of more than 25 mm of steel (with suitable source configuration).
• Single‑shot large‑area imaging using tiled CR plates and the mosaic kit.
• Software tools include zoom, pseudo‑colour, contrast stretch, edge enhancement, smoothing, embossing, histogram equalisation, distance measurement and annotation.
• Images stored as 16‑bit TIFF files for high fidelity and easy transfer, export and archiving.
