This is exactly the key point. You either have a queue of people inside the airport, or outside waiting to go through security. The target has just been moved and is equally as accessible (perhaps more so) as before.
- mseebach 11y agoThe point is that you could deploy this device without having a queue, just a door to slam in the face of a positive detection. Worst case, you need to space people out a bit.
- junto 11y agoWherever you have a funnel, you get a queue. You have people standing outside waiting for the bus, smoking a cigarette. People gather and there is nothing that you can do about it.
- mseebach 11y agoThen don't have a funnel, or have enough of them. I've never queued, except for maybe the briefest of moments, to enter an airport building, even though you always have to pass through a "funnel" (aka draft-preventing double doors[1]). Even the narrow automatic one-way sluice doors[2] increasingly popular as you leave the secure area of an airport only ever seem to cause a queue when some idiot tries to go back, and security has to reset them. When there's a queue at security/immigration it's because the checkpoint is understaffed (or otherwise under-provisioned), not because there's a checkpoint. 1: http://cdn.kone.com/www.kone.co.uk/Images/49562_Entrance_double_sliding_door_korj_565x175_565x175.jpg?v=1 http://cdn.kone.com/www.kone.co.uk/Images/49562_Entrance_dou... 2: http://www.recorduk.co.uk/images/getImage?t=product&img=image_overview&id=5 http://www.recorduk.co.uk/images/getImage?t=product&img=imag...
