An inside look at Logan Airport’s security strategy
Thursday, November 18, 2010 12:08
During my tour of the facility I also had a chance to speak with many of the people in the room, too. I got to see, firsthand, how the new advanced imaging technology machines work. While I opted out of seeing my own image (I’m shy, people, really), I got to take a peak into the room where the TSA officer views the images and what the images look like. I also learned from George Naccara, federal security director for the airport, that by April, he expects to have software that replaces actual images of people with generic stick figures that highlight areas of concern.
Sounds like we're getting closer to AIT ATR.

So in other words the AIT DOES STORE images?!
...waiting for someone come along and claim it was in 'test' mode for the show and tell session OR that they held the image till he could walk over to the peep show both err screening room.

AIT? You mean WBI or NoS?
If Kippie & Pissy say that it will be a while until they get ATR for the WBI/NoS, I highly doubt that BOS will get it

Uh... enforcement of access? Aren't we promised that access is tightly controlled and there are no cameras, etc?
Does that mean screeners can just let their buddy down the hall at the terminal Subway into the peep booth to check it out too?

BOS has been a tester site for many of the TSA rollouts, enhanced pat-downs and NoS for example. It wouldn't surprise me if they were the first to get ATR for testing as well.

I see no reason to subject oneself to any additional xray sources.

I dont see how you can construe the article to have anything to do with storing an image.

Anyway, software changes don't convince me. Not as long as they continue to have false positives and invasive patdowns. Also if you don't believe they can't enable the save function are you going to believe they can't enable the enhanced view?

Not sure how he could see his own image, while simultaneously standing in the NoS, if it wasn't stored.

Talk to me when they're actually deploying the software to the field. There's nothing that's more ephemeral than software delivery dates.
