The correct answer is B) Threat Image Projection.
X-BIS stands for X-ray Baggage Inspection System, commonly used in security checkpoints. TIP in the context of X-BIS refers to Threat Image Projection, which is a software feature designed to enhance the effectiveness of security screening operators.
TIP works by superimposing artificial images of prohibited or dangerous items (threats) onto the real X-ray images of bags being screened. This allows the system to test and train operators by seeing if they detect these simulated threats. It helps maintain operator vigilance and identify training needs.
