Camera breakthrough promises and threatens…

The online technology section of the Telegraph newspaper is reporting on a new camera developed in the UK that can ‘see through clothes, skin and even walls without X-rays.’

Apparently models costing the same as digital cameras could be on the market in a matter of years, which could revolutionise medical practice, not to mention law enforcement.

Remember the scene in The 5th Element, when the police ask everyone to stand against the wall? [via Metafilter]
