Maybe we should go on dragons den
totally - shame it wasnt in a separate rns on a different day.
I have to agree I think the real-time water detection was neglected in the presentation. I understand they had to explain the breathalyser as it is new as of today but the real-time monitoring is where it’s at. I imagine there will be a fair few new tests launched next year and although our one with the digital/passport element sounds great the real-time water detection is even more important and sets us apart. We’ve done this already with ecoli and yes this was mentioned but took a back seat. We should have been singing from the rooftops about this and how it can transform societies all over.
More questions on the breathalyser rather than reinforcing confidence on the real-tone wastewater detection which will be transformational. The breathalyser is a bonus but for me the main play was underplayed today.
Yes, there will be certified DeepVerge crew, more jobs.
i think people will slowly realise that the waste water detection is the main event. its stunning news and they have an install base ready to go.
When you go to the airport does everyone check in at one desk or go though security in a giant line through one scanner?
When you go to the football does everyone get their ticket checked at one gate?
No.....so why would that be different for this test. They would have multiple stations with multiple readers at the big venues I would assume.
Well let us hope they stick with the decent-sounding RNS rather than a link to the video!
The scanning process at the venue will be instantaneous, so no more need for a queue than there was pre virus.
Absolutely, this is brilliant idea. It will give hope to many. Imagine being able to go to a gig in the O2 or a Premium match again. They could add on a £5 quid or so surcharge to the ticket for each gig or match to cover the kit needed. Having Dell in the game is also no small feat either. Those guys would not want their logo anywhere near this if it was such a crazy idea. Enjoy the rollercoaster ride here !!
thinkaboutit...Mass production of the scanner, various testing points away from the arena / stadium....Think about it again.
They will know before they queue that they are all clear. Nobody is going to queue knowing they have the virus.
And those queuing up for these events will have to keep a 2 meter distance until proven to not be a carrier. Has anyone worked out how long that queue would be for a football match or concert holding 40,000?
Yes I liked it yesterday but this has changed my entire view of it.
In!
I agree 100%. Even if GB's vision of everyone using this as part of their daily routine to return to "normality" is never realised, and this 'just' unlocks big events, transport hubs, large workplaces and cruise ships (as examples) then the potential is phenomenal. Moreover, the opportunity is truly global.
In or out?!!
The need to scan the chip in a box at a venue took the market by surprise and this is what triggered the drop in my view. However, whilst the solution might not be as ideal as getting the result directly via the inhaler, the potential for opening up economies is huge. Just think of a big sporting event as an example. Thousands want to go, get there tests done locally at any number of convenient venues and then, armed with the all clear on their phones, simply scan the Q code on the turnstile etc at the major event and they are in. Once people figure out the potential the SP will bounce back and strongly in my opinion. This will overtake current test/trace solutions and quite possibly reduce the need for masks, social distancing etc in venues, and make cruises, large spectator sports, concerts and all sorts viable again. I was initially surprised and disappointed by the scanner dimension but the more I think about it the more I think they are nonetheless onto a serious winner here.
