AIME harnesses Konduko to generate leads
AIME, the Australian MICE event, is harnessing a new solution to help delegates generate more leads. The show will use Konduko, a new solution that “captures interactions and data instantly”. Konduko readers will be placed on exhibition stands, and visitors can tap their badge on these readers to give exhibitors instant access to their details and information about their business.
Canadian border service trials new lie detector
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) is helping to test a solution that will help determine if travellers are lying about their reason for entering the country. The ‘Automated Virtual Agent for Truth Assessment in Real Time’ (AVATAR) system is a screen that asks travellers a series of questions, and then detects changes in their physiology and behaviour, to tell if they are lying.

Swiss-Belhotel trials mobile room keys
