Episode Synopsis

Airports are worlds unto themselves, worlds where a beginner can easily get lost. Most passengers rush to their departure gate as quickly as possible, only to sit there for hours waiting for their flights to be called. To make for more efficient airport stays, a team of LMU computer scientists working with Professor Claudia Linnhoff-Popien has developed a system that can guide passengers through the vast airport environment and send them quickly and surely to their departure gate while also giving some freedoms along the way.
