I pass through security checks with Arduino equipment in the bag, and there was never any issue. Sometimes my USB charger, which is quite bulky, is visually inspected, but that's about it. | |

I believe the idea is to present relatively large closed boxes in as clear a way as practical under the circumstances. Notebook computers, and below that might be largish tablets and such like, as well as certain other things that look "a certain way" to the X-rays. Where such things are uncommon they'll not make a general rule, but will shunt you off at the end to take a gander at whatever it is that appears to be of interest. | |

| Aug 31, 2017 at 3:48 | comment | added | choster | I've never been required to put personal electronics other than a laptop computer in a tray. I remove them all and put them in my carry-on well before reaching the checkpoint, including watch, smartphone, and tablet, and I have never been asked to remove them to be scanned separately. | |
