A designer from Houston, Texas named Mason Bonar came up with a concept for an electronic boarding pass. It would be a small device with a touch screen that could access all information at the airport. This way, everyone would be able to know when their flight was. It could be used for games and videos while people are waiting. Supposedly, they would have a "stackable chargin system". The thing I found most interesting was the idea that this would help "deaf or hearing impaired stay alert to important changes in their flights". I am not completely sold on the idea, but some aspects did catch my attention. As I see it, why would an airport ever spend their money on a product like this? Most people today have their own electronical devices already, so it would be smarted in my opion to create things that can be sent out to any electronical device that you already have in your position. For example, the stadium for the Seattle Maroners is owned by the Nintendo company. If you bring your Nintendo DS, then you can interact with the stadium... you can order food from your seat, get more information on the players, etc. I remember hearing that things like this would be more likely for airports in the near future.
