Clothing no longer a barrier to Qantas security
Wednesday, April 02, 2008
X-ray vision is no longer limited to superheroes, as Qantas debuts a
security screening technology in Melbourne this week that can see
through the clothing of passengers.
Although the ProVision Portal is not a part of the current security
screening process, the technology is being introduced into the Qantas
Domestic Terminal for public consideration.
"Passengers are invited to view and test the equipment on a voluntary
basis in order for Qantas to gain customer feedback on this new
technology," said Qantas Group General Manager Security Geoffrey
Askew.
The device utilises millimetre waves which "are not invasive or
harmful," according to Askew, which scan the body, creating an image
of the outline of a person and indicating the position of any foreign
objects.
Concerns of privacy violations can be dispelled, as "the face is
unrecognisable and sensitive areas of the body are blurred."

The rag-heads (and their Leftie cheer-squad) will go into a frothy flat spin
over this.

You keep stuttering like that Pits and they'll let you park in spaces for
the disabled......... :-)
Or was it just a side effect of your lascivious mind accompanied by wishful
drooling as you fired off your application to be a Qantas security
'droid.....................hmmmmmmm?

Good let em spin away . Actually the patent is held in part by a
leftie go figure
There is also another system (TADAR) that had its roots with
Freunhoffer (people that gave us MIDI)
So Mikes reference to Lou Reed is kinda funny ( as is perhaps
mike ) Sorry Yagu

A 203 I believe, means u have a DOS overload, ie too many resources vying
for too little resources. Did tell you to lay off the Boags, Phil.
