The gmSCAN uses magnetic induction to determine the dielectric properties of the carcasses without contact. The measurement system is formed by a number of transmitter coils that generate a variable and low intensity magnetic field. The receiver coils converts the signal from the perturbation of magnetic field caused by the carcass into a complex electric signal, related to the dielectric parameters of the muscle and fat tissue of the carcass.
