The conveying system comprises a conveyor for conveying pieces of luggage, detection means provided with a camera for making an image of at least one object, normally being a single piece of luggage, present on the conveyor at a checking location, and image processing means for the automated processing of images made by the camera. The camera is designed to make images of the infrared type, wherein the image processing means are designed to process images of the infrared type. The image processing means have at their disposal information regarding infrared images of non-suspect pieces of luggage exhibiting at least one area with an elevated temperature. The image processing means are further designed to make a comparison between an infrared image made by the camera that exhibits at least one elevated temperature area and said information for deeming or not deeming the at least one object that is the subject of the infrared image made by the camera to be“suspect”on the basis of the comparison by the image processing means. The invention further provides a method for using such a conveying system.</p> |
