Description
To counter the plots of terrorist organizations, criminals, and smugglers across the globe the airports have started incorporating advanced technologies in devices, such as information display solutions, screening & handling systems, terminal expansions, and emergency services. The screening systems used by airport authority find it difficult in identifying the explosives planted using laptops and tablets as only whole body imaging systems were available at airport checkpoints. This is the reason why the US and the UK Governments have banned people traveling from the North Africa and North Africa from carrying laptops and other electronic devices in airports. Germany and France are also planning to implement the similar ban in near future. The technological advancements have now revolutionized the growth of this industry in response to the bomb blasts and hijacking activities in aircrafts.
