Computer science subject: QA76 Computer software description: Travellers have experienced one of these three prominent occurrences, waiting time, luggage theft and excess luggage charge. Waiting time can be converted into “relaxation time” while luggage theft and excess luggage charge can be avoided. This paper proposes a smart bag that allows travellers to watch movies and listen to music on the go. This was made possible by a theatre system specially designed for the bag. A 3D trilateration technology and a GPS tracker installed in the smart bag checkmated the problem of luggage theft while an inbuilt luggage weight sensor made it possible to give travellers’ a foreknowledge of the weight of their luggage to avoid the ever present possibility of being charged for excess luggage weight. The smart bag system is powered by a solar panel that allows mobile devices to be charged via dedicated ports on the smart bag. date: 2018-07 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://eprints.covenantuniversity.edu.ng/11329/1/A-solar-powered-smart-travelling-bag-with-an-embedded-videoaudio-player.pdf identifier: Matthews, V.
