Long ago, TrendHunter introduced you to the concept of X-Rays that can see through clothing. Now, 10 U.S city airports are installing these scanners.
The scanners can see through passengers' clothing and reveal details of their body. Not sure if it's like x-ray glasses but I think it's a good thing if you don't have to take off your shoes and your belt, saving time going through the airport.
The scanners are supposed to zone in on metal, plastics, ceramics, chemical materials and explosives, according to the TSA.
Here's the original story:
