Terahertz Imagery Progresses

Posted by michael on from the see-thru dept.

ke4roh writes "Since Slashdot last discussed terahertz imaging, the European Space Agency's Star Tiger project has taken terahertz images of a human hand. Some of the pictures show just how useful the imagery might be for peering through walls and such - one of the images is through a 15mm pad of paper." The EE Times has another story.

    They are already working on those for airports. In a way, I will feel sorry for them having to see me naked just so I can get to my plane faster.
