U.S. to impose stricter electronic carry-on airport screening

American travelers flying to, from and within the country are set for tougher security measures at airports. Soon, like India, passengers will have to separate personal electronic devices (PEDs) going in cabin baggage for X-ray screening. The new rules significantly expand the number of electronic devices unlike prior PEDs like laptops, that will need to be removed for screening and help government employees get a clearer view during X-ray screening.
