I mean we've already had airport scanners, x-ray glasses...

To my knowledge, the idea with this camera is that it can replace or supplement cameras already in public places, so if you're walking down the street, they'll be able to see if you're carrying a bomb, drugs, or a porn magazine inside your jacket.

I really don't want to make the guys watching me jealous of the size (you know what I'm talking about), so I'll just pass.

Can I remind members that the preferred option for starting a new thread is to refer to a piece of news supported by commentary or offer an opinion, which may or may not be supported by links.

One liners, or worse, just a link, rarely inspire discussion - and whilst not exactly against forum rules - though one harsher than I might level an accusation of spam - such threads are discouraged, in the spirit of fostering interesting debate.

Having noted the above, I'll leave this one open for now, in the hope something may come of it.

Size of your gut?

I am all a quiver with the thought of a Heidi Klum picture with that camera. She's got to have the sexiest blob bod on the planet. :eyebrows:

The camera would be of benefit to women though. It could answer the age old question "Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" :laugh4:

Nope.
Terahertz, or sub-millimeter wavelength applications are a relatively new development, but it's still teh old.

You got my hopes so high...

You got my hopes so high...
But it was all a T's.

Terahertz, or sub-millimeter wavelength applications are a relatively new development, but it's still teh old.

To my knowledge, the question and actual possible implementation of it being in widespread use as a camera is relatively new. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[Mikeus Caesar]

Everytime i enter the backroom, my eyes are immediately drawn to this thread.

I can't imagine why...

Need something that can see into Cello cases, that's where the guns go. :thinking:
