In fact, many PT clinics and sports clinics use them because they are so sensitive and give great feedback to the user/patient. For airports? Fidgetiness? I don't like it. If you get a chance, try out the Wii Fit...very cool technology and fun. As a physical therapist, Chris, I can tell you that it does an AMAZINGLY good job at body weight and balance measurements.

I have never used one, but I can't imagine it being good enough to accurately monitor "shifts in body weight", especially small ones like people being fidgety. I guess I am just a little skeptical on this, although it is quite interesting. Is the Wii Fit even accurate enough to monitor things like this?

Personally, I think if they can keep the screeners awake and engaged in their job, we don't need a Nintendo Wii! Good flesh out on fidgetiness at the airport...if it was me, I was have to go to the bathroom first otherwise, I would be very fidgety.

Actually, I think a majority of people would be shitting their pants since they would get all nervous. Then what? 10 ppl get held for suspicion? ...unless! They use reverse psychology... the ones who DON'T shake or are nervous must def be up to something. Haha, no way.
