Sencion liquid threat detector Taking a flight these days seem to get more and more stressful as passengers are required to walk through numerous security checkpoints before boarding. Even liquids and gels in small bottles need to be inspected as these could potentially be terrorist threats, holding up the line even longer. A new device known as the Sencion has been invented that can detect whether the contents of a bottle is a potential threat liquid without the need to take the top off. The Sencion utilizes electro-magnetic wavelengths to detect flammable or explosive liquids contained within glass or plastic bottles almost instantaneously, cutting down waiting times in security queues. Hopefully the Sencion will see action in airports all over the world soonest possible, with Japan’s Kansai International Airport already using it.
