BOSTON, Massachusetts (CNN) -- The days of being able to walk through airport security checkpoints while wearing shoes and a jacket could return if an experimental program proves successful, some Department of Homeland Security officials say.
Project officials hope various sensors, such as this one that tracks eye movement, can help security screeners.

The Homeland Security-funded project is Future Attribute Screening Technology, or FAST. Instead of focusing on whether you have hidden explosives or whether you're carrying a weapon, sensors and cameras located at security checkpoints would measure the natural signals coming from your body -- your heart rate, breathing, eye movement, body temperature and fidgeting.

What if one was a nervous type, like fidgeting, shifty eyes. etc. . What would happen to them.......way too easy to misread people with this technology.

Observer: imagine Jim Carey going through the airport doing one of his weird faces & body moves.....hillarious...or one of the Monthy Python guys. Oh I would love to be a fly on the wall for that.:naughty:
