Removing your laptop and liquids at airport security may soon be a thing of the past
Going through airport security is never fun, but soon it’ll be a little less stressful.
Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, one of the world’s largest airports, has started testing new scanners for hand luggage that don’t require you to take out large electronic devices and liquids. While today you still have to put your laptop and perfume in a separate basket, the new technology can identify them from within the bag.
The new ClearScan devices give security personnel a 360-view of content instead of the common top-down X-ray view. This allows them to look at the luggage from all sides, resulting in a more precise view of the passenger’s belongings.
