We are years away from seeing such a system in reality, but there are signs of it taking shape. From October, two pillarlike devices will flank one of the terminal entrances at Pearson. Known as Hexwave, they look like the theft detectors used in retail stores. But they’re not concerned with what’s going out; they’re checking what comes in.

The devices scan everyone who passes between them with millimetre-wave radar. Hexwave creates 3D images of everything the person has on them, then uses artificial intelligence to determine if there is anything that requires a closer look from a security guard. The system’s manufacturer says it can spot new threats like non-metallic 3D-printed guns and improvised explosives as well as regular horrors like firearms and knives. Crucially, says Barrow, the device does this without delaying people: “You’re not stopping, you’re not putting your arms up, you’re walking as you normally would.”

The project will help determine whether similar walk-through devices could be used at security checkpoints, where they could be used to triage passengers entering the screening area, flagging those with worrying items for closer inspection while directing people whose pockets contain a wallet and packet of mints to a less intense process.
