There have been topics posted about how requiring people to be nude when flying would be good for security and requiring them to be nude when shopping would reduce shoplifting to zero. Obviously, these ideas would not be accepted by the public. But what would the public accept?
You may have read about a new and very effective full-body airport scanner that can see through clothes. It reveals all objects being carried and the outline of the person's body, kind of like Superman's X-ray vision.
In limited trials of the machine, it was clear that people were unwilling to accept the idea of a security person wiewing the outline of their naked body in real time.
So the designers modified the machine to delete the image of the person's body, substitute an image of a sexless mannequin, and superimpose on it the image of the objects that the person was carrying. Problem solved, I presume.

There's another one from Miami to Cancun on May 3-10. Details here.
Have any details on that recent one, Gary? Sounds interesting.

I have a hard time trying to figure what the big to do is all about having a full body scan at the airports...the way I look at it is, those who have the most to hide are gonna be the ones who really shouldn't be carrying on the planes what they have intended to begin with...
So if it makes flying safer to have a full body scan...I am all for it [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Just think, had everyone had to go through these scans everytime a plan was hyjacked...how many more planes would still be up in the air flying or wherever, after all I have nothing to hide [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]

What I don't understand was why then need an outline image of the person's body at all. Why impose the mannequin image? If they need to work out exactly where items are relative to the person's frame, surely the skeleton can be seen, and the position determined from that? |

Aussie: As I understand it, the X-ray scan outlines the "edges" of the body and not specifically the skeleton.
