The global Covert Weapon Detection System market size is predicted to grow from US$ 854 million in 2025 to US$ 1766 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.9% from 2025 to 2031.
A covert weapon detection system is a security technology designed to discreetly identify concealed weapons or dangerous objects on individuals in various settings, including high-security environments like airports, government buildings, public venues, and critical infrastructure facilities. Unlike traditional metal detectors or visible security measures, covert weapon detection systems aim to detect threats surreptitiously, without the knowledge or cooperation of the individuals being screened. These systems play a crucial role in enhancing security and reducing the risk of concealed weapons being brought into sensitive areas.
The refinement and integration of advanced imaging technologies, such as terahertz and millimeter-wave imaging, continue to enhance the ability to detect concealed weapons with higher accuracy and resolution.
