  • Trials of the technology have been conducted, sparking criticism over pseudoscience and potential discrimination against those with disabilities.

  • The EU is also developing a super-database to store records of individuals entering the EU.

  • UK airports are undergoing major changes, including the introduction of new luggage scanners to enhance security measures.
