If you don’t like the traditional and usually invasive ‘pat down’ style of airport security, you can now opt in for the human X-Ray prior to your flight. Manchester airlines is set to begin it’s trial run of the human X-Ray, giving passengers an option of leaving their clothes on.
The down side? While you are being barraged by a few billion electromagnetic waves, an airline security officer gets an ‘au naturale’ view of your goods.
Peeping Security Scans
Manchester Checks out X-Ray Tech at the Airport
Trend Themes
1. Human X-ray - The use of X-Ray technology in airport security checks on passengers, which has potential to disrupt traditional methods as well as raise concerns about privacy.
2. Non-invasive Airport Security - The introduction of less invasive methods like human X-Ray in airport security checks could offer an opportunity to disrupt traditional security methods and offer more convenience for passengers.
3. Electromagnetic Wave Technology - The use of electromagnetic waves in human X-Ray technology used in airport security checks could pave way for new innovations in medical imaging fields.
Industry Implications
1. Airport Security - The airport security industry could implement human X-Ray technology to disrupt traditional baggage and passenger screening procedures and enhance passenger experience.
2. Medical Imaging - Human X-Ray technology used for airport security checks could be applied in medical imaging industries for better, non-invasive diagnosis procedures.
3. Consumer Goods - An opportunity to develop non-invasive X-Ray scanners could create a new category of consumer goods for use at home and other public places aside from transportation hubs.
