Rohde & Schwarz launches new security scanner for large events at Security Expo 2026. Rohde & Schwarz has announced a new walk-through security scanner aimed at venues handling high volumes of visitors, as the company prepares to exhibit at Security Expo in Essen from September 22 to 25, 2026. The company said the QPS Walk500 is a more compact version of its QPS Walk2000 walk-through scanner, positioned for use at large events where screening needs to identify weapons, explosives and other prohibited items without creating bottlenecks. Rohde & Schwarz said the QPS Walk500 is designed to allow people to pass through without stopping and without removing coats or other outerwear. The company stated the system can screen up to 750 people per hour. According to Rohde & Schwarz, the scanner combines millimeterwave technology with AI-based algorithms to detect a range of materials including metals, plastics, liquids, granules, organic materials and ceramics, and to identify objects that may not be detected by conventional metal detectors. The company said its automatic threat detection highlights the location of suspicious objects on a neutral avatar to support follow-up inspections, and that an optional "hand-masking" feature is intended to allow people to hold common items such as phones, wallets and keys without disrupting the scan. Alongside the new walk-through scanner, Rohde & Schwarz said it will also showcase its QPS201 static security scanner at the expo. The company also said it will promote ARDRONIS, described as a drone defence system intended to detect, locate and counter RF-based drone threats, as part of its broader focus on security technologies for critical infrastructure. Rohde & Schwarz said its security scanners are designed for use in applications with controlled access processes and high security requirements, including aviation, border controls, data centres, correctional facilities, loss prevention, nuclear facilities and events.

R&S launches new security scanner for large events at Security Expo 2026. September 16, 2026 At the Security Expo in Essen from September 22 to 25, 2026, Rohde & Schwarz will showcase not only its proven QPS201 static security scanner but a new walk-through model as well. With the QPS Walk500, the company is expanding its portfolio to include a more compact version of the QPS Walk2000 walk-through scanner. The solution is specifically designed for use at large events with very high foot traffic. Rohde & Schwarz also uses its security technologies to address the protection of critical infrastructure. With ARDRONIS, the company will also be showcasing a powerful drone defense system that detects, locates and specifically counters RF-based drone threats. Rohde & Schwarz security scanners are designed for applications in a wide range of industries with high security requirements and controlled access processes. These include aviation, border controls, data centers, the correctional system, loss prevention and the protection of critical infrastructure such as nuclear facilities, and events. Security checks pose a particular challenge at very large events. Dangerous items such as weapons, explosives and other prohibited items must be reliably detected - without unnecessarily slowing down the flow of people. Rohde & Schwarz positions the QPS Walk500 precisely in this application area. The scanner was specifically designed for event security with high foot traffic. People pass through the security checkpoint without stopping and without needing to remove their coats or other outerwear. With a capacity of up to 750 people per hour, the new QPS Walk500 enables efficient and reliable security checks. Its combination of millimeterwave technology and AI-based algorithms makes the reliable detection of a wide variety of materials possible, including metals, plastics, liquids, granules, organic materials and ceramics. It can also detect potentially dangerous objects that cannot be detected by conventional metal detectors. Automatic threat detection precisely locates suspicious objects on a neutral avatar. This allows security personnel to immediately identify where a targeted follow-up inspection is necessary, saving time and shortening the interaction with the person being screened. The additional optional hand-masking feature allows people to hold everyday items such as cell phones, wallets and keys in their hands without interfering with the scanning process. This makes security checks more efficient and helps maintain the flow of people even when visitor traffic is heavy. The QPS Walk500 stands out for its lightweight design, offering a flexible alternative to conventional access control systems. Its open design allows for an intuitive and welcoming security screening process, while audible and visual cues make it easy to use. With the QPS Walk500, Rohde & Schwarz is expanding the QPS Walk portfolio to include a compact model for applications requiring the highest throughput.
