The Rex B Martin Judicial Building in Lenawee County, Michigan is now equipped with new technology. According to an article on Lennconnect.com, an X-ray machine was recently installed to help security officers look for contraband. Both sheriff’s officials and Signal 88 Security officers are being trained on how to operate the device.

The machine, which is replacing one that was 12 years old, can highlight weapons, explosives and narcotics that are made up of both organic and inorganic materials. It’s a big improvement to the old system, and according to the article, it wasn’t a costly one.

“Cost-wise, not much has changed, but we get better technology,” said Lt. Jim Craig of the Lenawee County Sheriff’s Office in an interview with Lennconnect.com.
