This Imponderable comes from where so many other Imponderables do, Japan.
It actually makes sense to me. You cannot drive without sitting down so embedding a scanner in a seat seems totally non-intrusive to me.
Of course, as technology often does, it opens up a whole new set of troubles. The groper who grabs a woman’s ass on the subway? “Sorry Officer, I was just scanning her ass. It was all a misunderstanding, I thought she stole my car.”
I suspect that the technology was a sneaky way for Japanese scientists to conduct research on rear ends. Can you imagine the R+D that went into his? This may be the only legitimate reason for a nerd to have porn on his laptop. Caught with nudie pics by his wife? Research.
How many models and porn stars were hired by Japan’s Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology?
The question is Imponderable.
