9、ill make going through security a lot quicker and easier in the future.Queuing, unpacking and repacking our suitcases is the price of airport security. Suitcases go through an X-ray and any suspicious image means the luggage is sent on to a second machine, but a new 3D scanner may speed things up. I

10、t was the result of a cooperation between a global company, Rapiscan Systems, and a team led by Professor Bill Lionheart.

13、ve used for the scanner is also a starting point for other applications.Rapiscan also make metal detectors which made Professor Lionheart think that there are perhaps new ways of thinking about landmines（地雷）.Its not a problem we have in the UK,” says Lionheart, “but in the Far East and Africa, it wi

14、ll take hundreds of years to clear the mines.

15、 airport security, then apply the same things to material science, inventing detectors, and you realize the same mathematics could be applied to landmine detection.
