JERUSALEM (AFP) - Israeli scientists have developed revolutionary new radar technology that will allow people to see through walls. The radar system, developed by the Herzliya-based Camero company, can produce a three-dimensial image of what lies behind a wall by the use of ultra-wideband technology, Haaretz newspaper reported Thursday.

The quality of the pictures is similar to that produced by ultrasound and they can be taken from a distance of up to 20 meters (yards). The company's chief executive Aharon Aharon said an initial prototype of the device was expected to be ready in 18 months and could help rescue workers find victims of disasters.

"When disaster victims must be rescued from a collapsed building or a fire, time is of the essence," Aharon told the paper. "Rescue forces often invest enormous resources and precious time in combing the rubble, or endanger their lives by entering the flames, even if it is not clear that there are any survivors behind the walls."

Teenage boys around the world eagerly await commercial availability...

Teenage boys around the world are rounded up and separated according to who is circumsized and who is not.

And who is storing acorns for the winter.

Yes George, would be shocking, eh?

To our American sensibilities, I'm sure.

I can see a good side and a bad side to this technology:

You know they'll use it to search homes. That's an invasion of privacy, and might even (most likely) use it in this country one day. Like your guns? They'll know where you have them or other private materials besides contraband.

But I like it too, they can find the bomb shops. wmd...

Good old Israeli engineering.

I would assume that this technology falls under the same rules of evidence and search and seizure restrictions currently in place.
