1. A method for detecting an object, comprising the steps of:

  • defining expected characteristics of a scattered invisible electromagnetic radiation pattern to be detected at a receiver;

    attenuating at least a portion of an invisible electromagnetic radiation field by a presence of an object within a path of invisible electromagnetic radiation, said invisible electromagnetic radiation propagating off axis with respect to the receiver toward a scattering medium; and

    detecting the attenuation to indicate a presence of the object.
