(USGovernment-News.Com, February 25, 2017 ) The report "Airport Full Body Scanner Market by Technology (Millimeter Wave Scanner (Active Scanner, Passive Scanner) & Backscatter X-Ray), Airport Class (Class A, Class B, Class C) and Region - Global Forecast to 2021", The airport full body scanner market is projected to reach USD 118.2 Million by 2021, registering a CAGR of 8.40%. A number of factors, such as easy availability of smaller robust components, rising concern for airport security, and growth in passenger traffic worldwide will drive the growth of the airport full body scanner market.
The millimeter radio-wave scanner is expected to grow the highest during the forecast period.
The millimeter radio-wave scanner is used in the international airports globally. The market is absent in the Middle East region due to privacy issues concerned with revealing images of passengers while screening. Whereas, the North America and the Europe regions have larger market shares in this segment. Europe is expected to show higher growth rate as compared to the Asia-Pacific region in the active millimeter wave scanner market. This is due to the non-emission of x-rays by the device that is harmful for the human body in the long term. The backscatter x-ray scanner is banned in the European region as the device can cause several malfunctions in the human body if used for screening.
