Airport Queuing Time Measured With Bluetooth

jones_supa writes "Helsinki-Vantaa airport has established a new method of monitoring security control queue times, utilizing phones with Bluetooth enabled.

The plan is to eventually display all queuing times, which will allow busy passengers to decide whether it would be better to move to another checkpoint."
