    Remember those fake X-Ray spectacles you could buy from the back of a comic book? Real ones may be coming soon!

    Scientists have begun researching applications that involve the Terahertz spectrum, between infrared and microwave radiation. This spectrum is largely unused and available for consumers and corporations. It can transmit data at higher frequencies, thereby allowing more spectrum and data capacity.

    But even more interesting are applications that penetrate various materials to see what is inside. Also the technology can be incorporated into tiny CMOS chips, the kind used in cellphones and other hand held devices. So one day, with a cellphone, you might be able to view studs in a wall, a tumor, or of course, thru a person's clothes...

    Yeah my pair never worked , sons of bitches . I hope they come in a better style now . Yet somehow I bet they wont be so cheap as way back when . China , won't be able to keep up with demand . The factories will have to go 24/7 . Randy dudes will be camping out in lines at big box marts . The riots in asle 3 when they run out , will make black friday look like a picnic .

    They did. They were stupid looking. And of course,they didn't allow you to see anything except your own stupidity for buying 'em. hahahaha--I must have been 10 when I bought them. Anybody remember the Johnson & Smith catalog?? I bought handshake buzzers and itching powder from them. What an idiot!!! Sorry Skip--kinda off target.

    The TSA is going to be all over this technology... Cops too. Some government is going to lock this down before citizens get their hands on it... Like ours. :\

    Wow perverts will be all over this technology. They won't get arrested for taking pictures of people in public restrooms. They can just walk down the street. No reason to hide anymore.

    Ohhhh shit, the "plain sight rule" just got hardcore.... Cop doesn't have to search you to see anything you have, and all he's using is light, same as if he looked at a joint you left in your ashtray with his eyes.....

    Fuck my life.

    The technology, as you describe it, is already in daily use, albeit contraversially, at Heathrow Airport by Customs / Airport Security in order to scan passengers for arms / explosives. It is said to have the advantage over standard X-Rays, as it doesn't have the harmful long term carcinogenic effects that X-Rays do, plus it is far more energy efficient.

    If someone wants to spy on me sitting on the computer naked posting on hipforums more power to them. Hell on Sunday they don't even need X-ray specs.

    If you don't want to wait for the fancy store bought versions of the anxiously awaited new specs/.. you can simply convert your ordinary video camera you have sitting on your desk or dresser already to accomplish the same. Stay tuned for details....
    aaaaand we're back. You can grab an ordinary roll of film and develop it blank. DO NOT take any photos. Simply develop a blank roll. A cost effective way to do this may be to : load the film in a manual camera, I still shoot with a '76 AE-1; and wind the film so it will appear used. Take it to your local photo lab for developing. Comes back blank most place won't even charge for processing :) and rather than them throwing them away or anything (if that's suggested but I've never heard it) simply say you will just hang on to them and maybe try to figure out what went wrong with your camera. Even making a light joke of being "mechanically flawed" shows vulnerability and most people won't even second look again.
    next step. cut a BLANK DEVELOPED frame out, tape it to the lens of your digital video camera and select your night vision option and enjoy your peaking under clothes. ..weirdos.
