Part II: Casino Operations · Surveillance & Security

X-Ray Scanner / Baggage Scanner

Security Technology

Security screening equipment that uses X-ray imaging to examine bags, packages, and personal items for concealed weapons, contraband, or suspicious objects. In casinos, X-ray scanners are deployed at main entrances, employee entry points, loading docks, and count room access points. Modern systems use dual-energy imaging and AI-assisted threat detection to identify potential weapons, electronic devices, and anomalies.

In practice

Some high-security properties in Asia-Pacific use X-ray scanners as standard entry screening for all patrons; AI-powered detection capabilities can identify firearms, knives, and electronic cheating devices.
