Security checks were very necessary.
Security checks could prevent criminals from using planes as a means of transportation to engage in illegal smuggling activities and attacks.
On the other hand, even ordinary passengers would take a plane normally. They would also create security risks because they did not know what items were not allowed to be carried. Planes were not like cars or trains. The error tolerance of planes was so low that it was hair-raising. Once an accident happened, it was very likely to be on the headlines of the world that day.
After lunch at the company, Ye Qing asked the purchasing department to go to Shanghai and purchase several sets of the most advanced security equipment in the country.
Shanghai was not only the financial center of Hua Xia, but it was also an important part of the world's financial system. More than a thousand international conferences were held in Shanghai every year. Important events led by the government and private enterprises were even more numerous than falling leaves in autumn.
Here, security equipment was the most important part of ensuring that the conference activities were held normally.
The world's leading security equipment companies did not set up a flagship store in Shanghai to display their brand. It could be said that there was something wrong with their brains.
The leader of the security X-ray machine, Smith Hyman.
The company that developed the world's first hand-held metal detector, CEIA.
The millimeter wave security gate company that is widely used in US airports is Matrick.
These security equipment companies not only put their most advanced equipment in the exhibition hall for customers to enjoy and test, but they were also keen to participate in any security related technology exhibition.
The next day, the purchasing department brought two containers of equipment.
These equipment were taken over by the monsters and transported to the underground laboratory. Now, Ye Qing and Dian Jing stood in front of the equipment that had been installed and debugged. They used all kinds of "suspicious" items to test.
A knife hidden in a comb, a bayonet disguised as a pen, solid contraband stuffed inside an electronic product, and a sharp weapon made from a belt buckle.
These were the most common disguise methods in airports. In front of the X-ray transmission intelligent imaging detector purchased by the company, there was no need to look at it. The machine would automatically mark the suspicious items and send out warnings.
"The luggage inspection is not a big problem. These X-ray machines can automatically determine whether the object is suspicious based on the density and shape of the object. If an ordinary passenger carries the luggage to check in, under normal circumstances, most of the time should be wasted on the procedures. " Ye Qing was standing in front of a Smith Hyman SCN6040I X-ray machine. This X-ray machine was widely used in airport security equipment.
It had a 3D image function of CT objects and could even detect the atomic number of objects to determine whether there were any explosive objects in the suitcase.
Before a passenger boarded the plane, they would need to check in the items that exceeded the specifications or could not be brought into the cabin. Compared to the items carried in the passenger cabin, the security standards for checked luggage were much more relaxed. Even some flammable cosmetic lotions could be put in.
Ye Qing felt that the focus of technical improvements should be on the passengers' personal belongings.
"Boss … you're just going to fool them like this?" Compared to the optimistic Ye Qing, Dian Jing had a very strong objection.
"These contraband items, even the most old-fashioned X-ray machine and a security inspector would be able to see through them, right?" As Dian Jing spoke, a large amount of inexplicable electricity flashed across her face. "If I were an outlaw, why would I use such old-fashioned methods?"
"Then what method would you use?" Ye Qing asked curiously.
Dian Jing said, "Wait for me for a while." Then, she ran away. When she came back, she had a suitcase in her hands.
Under Ye Qing's watch, Dian Jing's suitcase passed through the Hyman X-ray machine smoothly. Not only did the machine not give off any warnings, but Ye Qing also stared at the X-ray film on the computer monitor. Similarly, there was nothing suspicious.
A few overalls, a comb, a thermos, and a laptop.
However, when Dian Jing opened the suitcase, the comb that appeared normal under the X-ray machine was pulled out by Dian Jing with a little force. Surprisingly, it was a sharp blade that used the handle of the comb as a disguise. The blade was hidden in the body of the comb.
Looking at the color of the material, it was obviously a small gadget that Dian Jing had just printed using a liquid printer.
This sharp blade was very special. It was not a metal blade that was extremely sensitive under the X-ray machine.
Instead, it was a plastic fiber knife that was printed with a hard fiber material. Although it was not metal, it was still extremely sharp. Ye Qing used it to cut the white overalls. As a result, the overalls were easily cut open.
"Glass fiber knives, carbon fiber knives, plastic knives. As long as the material is tampered with, there are good knife materials everywhere," Dian Jing said as she opened the thermos that was also normal under the X-ray machine. In the thermos, there were a few small parts made of transparent material hidden in the thermos.
After the assembly was completed, these small parts had already formed the shape of a simple single-shot pistol.
"Due to the lack of time, these were all printed using a liquid printer. As long as there is enough time, this pistol can be fired continuously using the carbon fiber compressed gas cylinder disguised as cosmetics as the power source. The bullets are even simpler. Just use a necklace bead. "After the introduction, Dian Jing was a little proud.
When the X-ray machine penetrated the metal material of the thermos, it was inevitable that it would miss the very low density plastic products inside. Under the X-ray machine, the thermos was completely blank.
In Dian Jing's opinion, human security methods were full of loopholes.
Even if the circuit was simply modified, a normal mobile phone could be turned into a small explosive device.
Lithium batteries were the best detonation material.
"..."
"You're just being sarcastic." Ye Qing was angry and amused. "The luggage compartment on the plane is physically separated from the passenger cabin. Even if there are more knives hidden, the passengers won't be able to touch them."
"Besides, not everyone has your technology and equipment. With the equipment in the laboratory, why are you still making knives? You might as well make a Individual Rocket Launcher and shoot the plane down outside. I guarantee that even the best airport security won't be able to detect it. "
"But plastic knives are very simple things. If they can't be detected in the luggage, they can't be detected in the carry-on luggage." Dian Jing pursed her lips. "The carry-on luggage has to be checked by the X-ray machine. The same equipment will naturally have the same detection results."
The checked luggage security was lax, but the passengers' carry-on luggage was especially strict.
During the security check, this was the most time-consuming part.
Like belts, wallets, and computers, these common items had to be placed in a small basket and passed through the X-ray machine one by one.
Dian Jing was right. The two small items that it had just made would not be detected even if they carried them with them and went through the security check one by one. The thermos could be detected by the security staff when they opened it, but the comb knife was made of the same material as the comb, so there would not be any abnormalities at all.
The items could go through the X-ray machine, but people could not.
The X-ray was very penetrative and would cause harm to the human body. Therefore, the passengers had to remove all the items that could be removed and go through the security check alone. In the early stages of some large-scale conference events, the host city would raise the security level to three or even four.
All the packages had to be opened and visually inspected by the security staff.
The security staff could not wait to suggest that the passengers take off all their clothes to go through the security check. This was to prevent passengers like Dian Jing from bringing things that could not be detected by the X-ray machine and the security check on the plane.
