Claim 20:
21. A method of installing detectors about a screening area, comprising:
installing a first detector about a screening area, the first detector configured to detect and analyze chemical information from one or more objects at a first location on a path between an entrance and an exit of the screening area;
installing a second detector about the screening area, the second detector configured to detect and analyze chemical information from the one or more objects at a second location on the path that is different from the first location using a detection library of restricted compounds, wherein the first and second detectors are each configured to analyze chemical information from the one or more objects;
adapting functionality of the second detector fora given one of the one or more objects based on a finding of the first detector for the given one of the one or more objects by adapting a visible illumination intensity used by the second detector; and
eliminating one or more compounds from the detection library of the second detector from consideration for the given one of the one or more objects based on the chemical information gathered by the first detector for the given one of the one or more objects.
