Latest security technology coming to Chinese airports

Airports in China are planning to adopt technology that can make it quicker for people to pass through airport security, according to Civil Aviation Administration.

Using a technology known as millimeter wave imaging, the security scanner can detect objects hidden under clothing, including nonmetallic objects, and can show their shape, size and position, the administration said.

The technology has been used in airports in the United States, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Australia and Japan.
