Answer 2

X-ray baggage scanners are the primary devices for scanning the things which are carried inside the luggage. With the help of the X-ray baggage scanners, the screen of the X-ray baggage inspection can show the carried goods inside in a much different color to make the staff be able to distinguish if there is any type of goods presents inside. There are various colors for highlighting the type of contraband like organic and inorganic goods. Every material is having distinguished rates of absorption of X-rays and this can help us for distinguishing what the baggage is having under the X-ray security inspection equipment. Though it seems reliable, in many cases it can get confused when two materials are having the same absorption rate like for example the absorption rate of C4 boom can and chocolate is the same. X-ray baggage scanners are highly reliable and accurate and in many cases, they can be harmful to our body.
