"THE CSIRO is developing millimetre wave imaging technology that could revolutionise security screening and medical procedures. The technology can detect metal objects hidden under a person's clothes from 5m away, and often detects hidden plastic and ceramic objects from a similar distance. Like infrared night vision technology, the CSIRO system uses other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum to define objects, rather than light."
