From this month Australian airports will have a new technology to play with, the "Virtual Strip Search". It's a practise that's banned in Europe however being trial currently in US, Netherlands, etc.What does this thing do?
Sounds like superman with the "see through" superpower. It's really amazing how human developed their technology! What else is impossible in the future?The system works by using millimetre wave technology that projects a low-level radio frequency energy around the passenger, creating a three dimensional image of their body.
The device strips away all layers of clothing, revealing an idealised holographic image of the person, making visible any concealed objects such as weapons or explosives.
What will this thing produce?
The faces are automatically blurred and ... it's only a chalk-style outline, it's not as invasive as some of the other equipment that we've got, the security officer that's looking at it is located away from the screening lane, so there's no comparison of the person walking through and the image. The images are not saved, you literally walk through, the screener hits a button to say clear and the image goes.However, many are not convinced yet. They worry their body image might be on Facebook! Or even get laughed at by bored security officers in a room who has nothing else do to except looking at chalk like images!
That's quite a substantial figure! Let's compare with car bombing. The reports can be found here.
As we can see, the number of car bombing cases greatly outnumbered the air plane bombing or suicide. At the moment, I don't think we have a solution for car bombings yet! Perhaps just dogs sniffing?
The attack on the Marriott Hotel in Islamabad should tell us a couple of things: For a start, no one and nothing is safe from a car bomb. Or, as in the Marriott's case, a truck bomb.Perhaps, the super smart geniuses should create something to prevent car bombing too? We might be able to save more lives and make the roads safer!As hotels go, the Marriott was a fortress. It had fairly good "standoff" — the distance between it and the street; luggage and guests were X-rayed before entering; the hotel was located in one of the best policed capitals in the world. The only thing that could have been done to make the Marriott even safer was to have completely shut down Islamabad's traffic — something obviously not practical. Pakistan is as dependent on the internal combustion engine as any other city. More
However, looking at how things are going in the world, morals plunging, crime rates increasing, terrorist activities as active as a volcano, the trial just came at the right time to prevent something really bad from happening in the future! So, I think the Australian Government made a good move to start the trial phase for it now.
The key to success would be to prevent abuse of this system. Proper selection of staffs and training is a must.
I don't mind to get scanned the next time I pass through Melbourne Airport! Might be cool!

从本月澳洲机场将有一个新的技术发挥， “虚拟地带搜索” 。这是一个信奉这在欧洲被禁止但是目前正在试验在美国，荷兰等
这是什么东西怎么办？
该系统使用的作品毫米波技术，项目，低水平的无线电频率能量客运周围，建立一个三维图像的机构。
该设备带以外的所有层面衣服，揭示了理想全息图像的人，使有形物体的任何隐藏，如武器或爆炸物。
听起来像是超人的“看穿”的超级大国。这真是令人惊叹人类发展自己的技术！还有什么是不可能的未来呢？
什么这件事产生？
脸上会自动模糊...这只是粉笔风格的大纲，它不是作为侵入的一些其他设备，我们有，安全人员是看它位于远离筛选车道，因此没有比较的人走过的形象。这些图像无法保存，你走过字面，筛分点击一个按钮，说清楚，不用的形象。
然而，许多人不相信没有。他们担心自己的身体形象可能会在Facebook ！甚至让笑的无聊保安人员在一个房间里谁也没有别的做，除非看粉笔一样的图像！
所以，这是虚拟脱衣搜查真的有必要？让我们看看有多少飞机自杀或使用的恐怖爆炸事件。平均而言，即将有2-3例，每年在美国。 15年来，有大约30是报告的案件。
这是相当大的数字！让我们比较汽车炸弹爆炸事件。该报告可以在这里找到。
正如我们可以看到，一些汽车炸弹爆炸案件大大超过了飞机轰炸或自杀。此时此刻，我不认为我们提供了一个解决方案汽车炸弹爆炸事件尚未！也许只是嗅探犬？
攻 击万豪酒店在伊斯兰堡应该告诉我们几件事：首先，没有一个与安全无关的汽车炸弹。或者，在万豪酒店的情况下，卡车炸弹进行袭击。至于去酒店，万豪酒店是一 个堡垒。它已相当不错“对峙” -之间的距离，并在街头;行李和客人是X光检查才能进入;酒店设在一个最佳首都治安的世界。只是，本来是可以这样做，使万豪更加安全是完全关闭伊斯兰堡的 交通-这显然不切合实际。巴基斯坦是依赖于内燃机任何其他城市。更多
也许，是超级聪明的天才应该创造的东西，以防止汽车炸弹爆炸事件吗？我们或许能够拯救更多的生命，并使道路更安全！
然而，在研究如何事情在世界上，道德下降，犯罪率增加，恐怖活动活跃的火山，审判刚刚在合适的时间，以防止不好的东西真的发生在未来！所以，我认为，澳大利亚政府提出了很好的举措，开始在审判阶段，现在。
成功的关键是防止滥用这一制度。选择适当的人员和培训是必不可少的。
我不介意扫描得到的下一次我通过墨尔本机场！可酷了！
