To say that they are “developing” systems I think is misleading, the fact is they have “developed” systems, they exist as products, and are installed at airports already. As for the cost of maintaining a FOD detection system, it is up to individual airports to do their own cost-benefit analysis, and the big unknown will be the cost due to FOD. For this information I would recommend the report published by Ian McCreary, as discussed here.

Actually, when it comes to civil aviation the risk is minor, the maintainability and manageability of all systems are a head hack and the prices simply don’t make sense.
