Airport X-ray

An airport scanner sends a fan of X-rays through each bag as the belt carries it past, and a row of detectors measures what gets through, one line at a time.

How to play

Tap to send the next bag through the scanner and watch its X-ray picture build.

Notes

Most scanners measure two energies at once. Comparing them tells light elements from heavy ones, so the screen colors each thing by what it is made of: orange for organic matter (clothes, food, paper, plastic), green for mixed and light inorganic matter (glass, ceramics, plastics with fillers), blue for metal, and black where almost nothing gets through.

The bags and the pictures here are built for the splash, with simplified materials. Tap to send the next bag.
