Burning Man Will Be Held Online This Year Due To Coronavirus

In an inventive response to the coronavirus pandemic, this year’s Burning Man festival will be virtual — and anyone can attend.

According to Lonely Planet, Fuel Matrix, a startup founded by CEO Roy Fuscone, aims to use methods like pressurized pads at self-service bag drops or during full body scans to collect data on passenger’s weight....
