High Tech Luggage Surveillance

[samthedog]

I usually land around midnight at swampy when flying in to the country. After clearing customs I head to the luggage belts to wait for my luggage. I always find it amusing to watch the Video screens showing the luggage making it's way to you. It's great that they have Video Surveillance of your bags. But what I find so amusing is that the Video is shot during the day and it's now around midnight????? Yep that wonderful Video Surveillance is a looped recording.

and.....? Why put up Video Screens at every luggage belt, Install camera's and only use them to show the same looped video. The looped video is shot on a nice sunny day and played at night. The other funny part is most of the people waiting for their bags are trying to spot them on the video not realizing that the sun set over 6 hours ago.

He's saying that it's not actual video surveillance. Just a looped video.

Well

its a misleading attempt to feign security that doesn't exist.

Then again maybe the purpose is that they let the baggage staff see the video (in the day) to make them think they are being watched so they dont try anything?

I actually saw my luggage on the belt video (distinct luggage). Although from the time I actually saw it to the time it was spewed out onto the carousel was several minutes. Perhaps it's recorded and looped later when the tv station goes of the air at midnight. Hey, you never know!

Maybe the engage the loop when the want to toss the bags unsupervised .

Whenever I've seen the video I've always seen my bag.

That's because the 'daylight' the OP thinks he saw is the bright lights without which you would just see a black hole.
