Do you see what I see? (fun with X-ray goggles)

Recommended Posts

Some claim it is a violation of civil liberties. Others claim it is a lot of civil fun. Oh and for security too.

Damn it. They should have used a female model.

BTW, this is very stupid because excessive exposure to X-Rays can cause cancer.

Yeah, in the same way that using a cell phone or microwave does.

I was under the impression that terahertz imaging (T-rays) was the next big breakthrough in this sort of thing, not X-rays.

There are more people walking around airports you would not want to see naked then there are ones you would. Don't forget that :/

I've heard that it takes five hundred x-ray exams to get radiation poisoning (or kill you?). I've also met a guy that told me he had a pet fish in a bowl on top of his microwave oven and it developed a tumor and died. I also have a 915MHz cordless phone and if I am talking on it and walk in front of the microwave oven while it is on the phone will almost completely cut out. That was a telltale sign that those microwaves were leaking out. Anyways, there's been no hard proof that mobile phones cause cancer, microwave ovens maybe, and x-rays definitely.

I'd hate to exposed to so much of that radiation.

Seriously, it's a universally known fact that excessive exposure to x-ray radiation can cause cancer. Why the hell would they do it anyways? Mankind takes yet another step backwards.

It's a very low intensity radiation - it's not like they're examining your bones.


\it's probably the same as the radiationj coming out of your monitor--- except my LCD ^_^

Maybe instead of X-ray radiation you could use light with very short wavelength?

Actually a longer wavelenght, somewhere in the infrared, would be better. Remember the Sony camcorder fiasco where the camcorder could be used to see through clothes?
