With seven million people a year departing from this one terminal alone, anything that can improve the security process is likely to be carefully assessed.


Well anybody who's ever travelled through an airport will be familiar with this now almost traditional form of security operation, which involves removing the odd items of clothing, and of course, being frisked or hand-patted from head to toe. Thank you.


The 12-month trial of Manchester is voluntary, and that anyone opting 1 to go through the new machine will not have to be processed in a normal way.


The beauty of this new technology according to the airport is that you don't have to take off any clothes or jackets, shoes or belts. The only problem is whether you mind certain parts of your body being captured on screen.


The airport won't allow any individual to be identified, so this is not my body but that of an anonymous 2 volunteer.


It's a completely anonymous image, and it's viewed by highly trained security officer who is sitting in a remote location in the airport.


Terrorism experts say the new technology is a step in the right direction, but they have serious reservations.


Terrorists and kind of terrorist groups we are talking here about, actually they are very aware of kind of technological 3 advances that have taken place in the industry, so what can you see the recent differences on Saudi Arabia is that terrorists have now moved to carrying the weapons or explosives in that case not on their body but within their body.


As far as most passengers are concerned, however, the new system looks likely to be approved.


So that may be so lot easier and at least you know you are gonna be safe 'cause everybody is going through the same thing.


It sees everything through yet and you may not can get anything on board, and a same work with the cases obviously. You know it.

If the officers monitoring the image spot anything suspicious, they can highlight specific areas of the body and send that to fellow security staff at the search area for a closer examination. The system may present a less than flatten 4 image, but it's one more advance improving to terrorists that they are running out of places to hide.
