X-ray of a child's boot with electronics

This is an X-ray of a child's boot with electronics. The batteries are mounded in the sole of the boot and the lights are placed along the sides. A motion detector in the sole controls the flashing of the lights (light emitting diodes) as the child walks. These types of boots rise many security issues when a child travels with them on an airplane. The layout of the electronics and batteries is almost identical to a terrorist bomb placed in the sole of the boot.
