Airport luggage security delay

I just arrived at US today... this time i took 2 flight.... horrible...
because of the delay, i missed 1 transit flight, and the next flight has some fuel problem, and go to another airport to get fuel...
Besides, i couldn't pass through the security gate straightly...
I went to specials room, and wait for 1 hour, and....

but anyway, i arrived!


Today's idea is also about the airport.
small thing about hand luggage security...

the current system is,
1. put off the watches, belts, wallet, mobile, shoes and some other belongings into small box
2. put our hand luggage on
3. put out our computer

or something like that. At that time, especially wearing off the shoes and belts, takes too much time.

then, what i thought is... what if the ground moves corresponding with the place where we put our hand luggage? (a little hard to explain with my vocabulary..  see the picture below)
then, we don't need to walk and we don't need to stop while wearing off the belts and shoes.
I think it would bring us much smoother security passing


Upper is current system, and bottom is my suggestion

Magnetic loop for normal environment

In my undergraduate research, i proposed and create a system for hearing impaired persons.
The contents will not be mentioned here, but when i was searching for the benchmarks , i found a very interesting existing technology.

which is called magnetic loop .

The interesting part is, the sound comes from the system is transferred into magnetic signal, and only the ones who have receivers can hear that sound, when they are near the sound source.

as i put a link above, that is now used in many different places..
As far as i know, there are some stadiums which has also the magnetic loop.

that is mainly for hearing impaired person, who can hear one source of sound if it is not mixed together with the different sound... hearing aid amplifier all the sound that exist, so it is really hard for hearing impaired person to hear mixed sound...
then, if we use magnetic loop technology, only one sound can be heard, and it enable the hearing impaired person to hear the sound...

the principle itself is quite simple, so in my opinion, it should spread more even though it is kind of old-technology

in museum, in city or stations and things so on...


And today's idea was inspirited by this technology


one of the concerns in airport is luggage...
and it takes really long time to get our luggage from luggage exit (i dont know how to call it, but where we can get the checked in luggage)
then, what i hate the most is we have to look every luggage really carefully...

then, what if every luggage has some function, which beeps when there are some receiver near them, and only beeps with paired receivers... (it can be a bluetooth, but more closer the range are the better)

then, we can wait luggage even with our back on the luggage....

maybe in terms of security, it would be hard to implement though

Taxi sharing 2 in airports

In my previous blog post, I mentioned about taxi sharing application...

the idea of sharing taxi might be really interesting topic, there must be some companies doing that kind of things...
(actually, here it is... it looks tons of people)

But i haven't heard some taxi sharing at the airport...
what if we could have it??? it might be interesting :)

When we book a flight, or might be later, if we register the destination after get off, they arrange us the taxi...

I've been a lot of places, and it seems that there wouldn't be a big difference in terms of price between normal transportation fee and taxi fee if we divided into 4....
then, if that is the first visit place, it would be really nicer if we can be ensured going to our destinations...

Birthday surprising at Airport

Hints from Spanair -Unexpected luggage





I like these kind of videos...

and what if there are some airlines which can provide some present when they book the flight around birthday??
they have a birthday info, age, gender, and stuff so on,
so i think it would be possible for airport to give some present :)

A solution for Airport luggage problems

I think... this photo is really powerful to describe the problem of the luggage at airport...

though... it might be good not to publish this photo...
(If i had to remove this one, please tell me><, thanks in advance)


not only losing, but also waiting for a luggage is one of the problem to travel by plane ...


then, what i thought is.... make a luggage carrier the seat in order to bring our luggage inside the plane
I think there are some security problems, but what if we can not open the carrier after scanning? maybe it is the same security method now :)

then, we don't lose our luggage, we don't need to wait for a long time, the limit of the weight might be able to  be larger... might be good :)

though... i know, it is a bit silly idea though :(


Thank you for reading :)

Finding a person who knows what we want to know

Since there are huge amount of data come across this world, many people can access to data, and many people can learn about anything...
But... for me, sometimes it is not that important to learn about something. Not all people should be a expert in my opinion.

I will explain with a simple example.

If i want to go to a Place A, i need to search the metros and how to transit and what road i should take after getting off the station... but... even these things, we don't need to search it now a days...

What if we can see some people who are going to go the same direction as me? i just need to follow him.

It can be more smaller place, like which exit should i take.. in these case, i am sure that there are some people who is going the near place.


 finding/searching what we want to know






finding/searching a person who knows what we want to know



It can be a situation when i get off the airplane in unfamiliar airport, if i could find somebody who will take the same train, i can follow those :)

and it might be good as well to know what station each people leave in rush hour in a train, so that we could have a seat :p

Today's idea is a bit ambiguous, but what i thought is in some cases, we should find a people who knows more than me, rather than finding a data in internet.

My country's nuclear problem was typical thing for that. Since i could not trust all the information, i searched and learned how the nuclear plant was build, and what the mechanism is, (of course briefly) and make me calm...
It would be nicer if i can find a right person who give us information

this idea especially works in both ways,
1. when the thing is really complicated
2. when the thing is not worth searching it, but it would be better if we could get the information.


it can be in a restaurant, whose menu is in foreign language.. if i could see the number of people who ordered in a menu, i could chose it easily :)


maybe there were some search engine which enable to search people... with some topic... but i could not find the url, but the idea might be an extension of that

Airport Cart Problem finding

After coming to france to study, thanks to the "EU", the number of taking airplane increase a lot for me.


The picture below is the one I took when i went to Finland for the project trip


as you can see, there are two types of problems, though these are not "critical", it might be interesting to find solutions for these.


the first problem is that, most of the child ride on the airport cart (or ride on a baggage which is on the cart), maybe more than 80% of families.
and the second problem is that, if they have baby, they need to carry both baggage and baby cart. If there are a mother and a father, it would not be a problem, one take a baggage, and the other take a baby cart...

but there is only one of the parents, i think it would be a problem...

then, why not solving the problem??



the first one might be much more easy to solve, the simplest solution is to put a chair for child.
maybe we can have some hint from shopping cart in supermarket.
if we want to make it exciting for child, following would be interesting. might be good with plane shape, and of course, make the baggage space much more bigger


and these would be interesting,


haha, and these one also



I don't know, but it might not be a "new idea" but... yes, i dare say it is new! cos there's no airport with those so far as far as i saw :p

and second one... the baby cart & baggage cart at the same time....

might be ok with solutions above, and having some place for baby carts....
