Results of theoretical and experimental investigations of radio-wave and ultrasonic systems for detection and tomography of hidden objects are presented. These systems can be used in the design of safety systems. Physical and mathematical aspects of achieving high speed and sufficient spatial resolution of inhomogeneities are discussed.
