DARQ Technologies in T&T

DARQ- An Acronym that stands for Distributed Ledgers (D), Artificial Intelligence (R), Extended Reality (R), and Quantum Computing (Q).

As people’s lives become more enmeshed with technology, unique opportunities are arising for companies to deliver a new product or service —not just customized for specific customers, but for their needs at a specific point in time. (Accenture, Travel Technology Vision 2019)


D - Distributed Ledgers include technologies such as Cryptocurrency and Blockchain, it allows consumers and businesses to conduct business transactions and collaborations dependably transparently, with verification of data & sources, self-executing contracts for insurance, rentals, and financial management. Handling medical emergencies during travel, single currency global forex transaction, automated VAT refunds, claim settlements and easy e-visa applications.

A- Artificial Intelligence with Machine Learning can automate mundane tasks, reduce human errors, streamline processes, make data-based decisions and reporting and giving employees more disposable time for being more creative and being more human.

R - Extended Reality or XR, brings real immersive destination experiences to the travelers so that they can have on-demand interactions for a gratifying decision making about consumption choices. For businesses, it means almost real training experiences saving a lot of training time and money through learning while personally navigating and experiencing the destination virtually.

Q - Quantum Computing, used for solving large computational problems with top of the league cybersecurity, would be an affordable system for the companies to enable their travelers to construct itinerary options within budget limitations, simultaneous translations in multiple languages and provide super-fast data analysis for traffic optimization, quick decision making, optimized dynamic location-based-services as well as 3D sharing over cloud computing and 5G networks.

Maximising Blockchain's Potential in T&T

Everyone is talking about and watching how the Blockchain is and can revolutionize the way business transactions are and will be conducted across their respective business spectrum. I have learned much from IBM tutorials and I have my own disposition regarding Blockchain and its potential in our travel and tourism industry. So what is it? Blockchain belongs to the DARQ Tech, where D stands for Distributed Ledger and blockchain is a logical model to implement distributed ledger.  What is a Distributed Ledger? A ledger in accounting terms is a book that records the transactions. In IT term a book is a database, so associatively it is a database that records the transaction, it is decentralized, there is no one central repository, authority or a third party mediator performing the bookkeeping, it is distributed, the work on this ledger and the information stored on this ledger is not localized to one system, it is distributed and shared among various participatin...

Bluetooth Mesh in Tourism

Bluetooth technology has been traditionally associated with exchanging data between mobile devices over a short distance, using short wave communication and building P2P personal area networks. A Bluetooth Mesh uses a Network Strategy that allows us to establish M2M relationships between wireless devices and allows any device in the mesh network to relay data in a form of messages to any other devices in the range, not necessarily in the direct radio range but all at once. The publish/subscribe messaging system publishes messages to all devices across the network, the device subscribed to the network receives the message and reacts, message from the source device to target device passes through a series of hops and can, therefore, span a wide physical area and support tens, hundreds and thousands of devices, where each device may act as a router. The Heartbeat message relayed in fixed intervals by the relay device allows the network to update its topology and prevents unnecessary f...

Identity management in Tourism in the Future.

Let's use the scenario of air travel. The numerator is convenience and the denominator is the security. Whatever advances are being proposed and obtained are to increase the convenience of the travelers and the people enabling the travel while maintaining the high level of security of the borders and the people with those borders. How did you use your identity document when you travel earlier around the 1980s? After the first industrial revolution and the advent of aircraft, only a few rich and wealthy people with great status could afford air travel, the who's and who would no need to prove their identity and would get a smooth passage but then many people started to get rich and were able to afford the air travel and the focus completely shifted from sea travel to air travel for international trade and tourism. In the 1980s, to travel domestically we hardly used any document, we were not asked to produce any identity document to book an air ticket and check-in and...
