I think if this is a successful experiment. This should become mandatory specification for all domestic & international airports around the world. It is just a small sacrifice for the safety of all.

The whole idea is good to save time however the manufacturer colud find some sort of solution from showing the private body parts, can be a scandal in the future.

Not a good idea and I beleive shouldnt be even under trial if it is showing up body parts. It is equivalent to seeing some one naked. Absolutely condemnalbe and people should raise voice against that. If someone is traveling with his sister, mother or wife, how could he bear that some one else is gonna see them naked and dont tell me that these would be destroyed automatically. Disgusting & embarrasing !!!!!!!!!!

Can only work if management ensures two separate ques for men & women and also the surveillance inspector is a man for gents and woman for ladies. Otherwise, unethical & annoying.

This is a solution for a long queue at the airport when going through security. I dont think it is embarassing because everyone must comply.

though it helps to save time and long queue's, it can be dangerous too. who knows it will be deleted automatically and not later distributed for few dollars or dime......

Great Idea - Just like they showed in Movies .... Definitely a time saver and very effective... provided they "use technology in the right perspective", there are scanners that relay live pictures but DO NOT record unless record is activated of suspected cases. This recording can be initiated only after the viewing officer identifies foul and obtains express permission to record. in this case every thing in the record room is also recorded to ensure there is no foul play even from the administration side. Good thought ...any one who made this possible... i definitely support this if implemented correctly.
