ABSTRACT

With the need for safety increasing in the airline industry by leaps and bounds, new technology is constantly and rapidly being developed. With technological change also comes concern from the public about health and intrusion-related factors. When purchasing new high technology equipment, the security manager must be aware of the availability of more and more sophisticated equipment as well as the public’s reaction to it. The most sophisticated and effective technology in the world is unacceptable if the traveler will avoid travel to avoid the equipment.
