Airport screeners emphazing security equipment continually upgrade (1)

2009 Christmas occurred in a flight to United States Detroit flight bombing attempt on the machine, to the United States airport security check or even global airport security gave a slap.

Time, global airport security check in the storm, 2010-1-4, United States-14 countries flying passengers before boarding the mandatory "nude" security (that is, whole-body scanners). Netherlands, the United Kingdom and other countries have started to use the "nudity" inspection. In a sense, the 23-year-old Nigerian man Abdullah Al Talab attempted bombing of the "Christmas", the machine has become a new inspection system for catalyst, airport security check into a new era.

Airport security is strictly forbidden to carry inflammable, explosive and other dangerous goods, the prevention of explosions, gunfire, drug trafficking and other illegal acts such as assault.

Therefore, the airport security check focus on detection of dangerous or prohibited goods, mainly used for explosion protection, prevention of violence. Airport security screening devices in General can be broken down into x-ray security inspection equipment, (metal detector) security doors, hand-held metal detectors, metal detector and so on the sole in several ways. States have, in General, the passenger's luggage and non-checked baggage must undergo x-ray security inspection equipment, from the observation window shows the article image, inspectors to determine whether security; at the same time, passengers must pass through the doors or hand-held metal detector. From these two links, x-ray security inspection equipment through machine monitoring on baggage checked, basically what problems does not exist, the security gaps mainly reflected in the "body" of the security check.

"Human security" — (metal detector) security doors, hand-held metal detectors

Security doors is a testing personnel have no carrying metal articles by detecting device, also known as the metal detector gate.

Mainly used in airports, stations, conferences etc. larger flow of public places to check people physically hidden metal objects such as guns, knives, etc.

Hand-held metal detector is designed to detect persons or objects of metal.

It can detect people carry or packages, luggage, mail, fabric, etc. within the belt of weapons, explosives or small piece of metal objects. In all the major airports, often as a complementary tool, generally used for secondary inspection. Sole metal detector is a security check in very important professional inspection instruments, present in some airport also has many applications.

But now, dangerous goods are moving in the shape of concealed, forms development, is no longer the mines, pistol so straightforward, that is not necessarily a treated small suitcase, lipstick, pen-style offensive weapons have emerged.

All this, the difficulty increases security, security doors again in an "embarrassment" situation. For example, for a liquid container packing of powdered stuff, trace goods, security doors, handheld metal detectors are often unable to discern the "dangerous goods", from here you can see, the airport security check of escalate.

Controversial new security — the "nudity" scanner (full-body scanner)

"Naked" scanner security products are the next generation, which utilizes x-ray technology, you can set the client's body, including private sites see clearly to wear "at a glance" passengers body hidden items or powder explosive, folk called "nude scanners".

Security sector that it is a "helper", can not only enhance the safety, speed up the security check. Currently, the United States, Netherlands, United Kingdom and other countries have already begun implementing the "nudity" inspection. However, because of its sensitive, privacy issues, "nude" security is controversial.
