Sensor head
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- an extendable wand;
a grip coupled to a portion of the wand such that the handle is able to be rotated about the wand; and
a sensor head coupled to the wand, the sensor head comprising a continuous wave metal detector (CWMD) and a radar, wherein the apparatus is configured to be converted into a storage configuration in which the wand is collapsed and the grip is rotated to lie adjacent to a top surface of the sensor head.

Abstract
An apparatus includes an extendable wand, and a sensor head coupled to the wand. The sensor head includes a continuous wave metal detector (CWMD) and a radar. When the wand is collapsed, the wand and the sensor head collapse to fill a volume that is smaller than a volume filled by the sensor head and the wand when the wand is extended. Frequency-domain data from a sensor configured to sense a region is accessed, the frequency-domain data is transformed to generate a time-domain representation of the region, a first model is determined based on the accessed frequency-domain data, a second model is determined based on the generated time-domain representation, the second model being associated with a particular region within the sensed region, and a background model that represents a background of the region is determined based on the first model and the second model.
