Dubai students unveil machine to turn massage cards into points

ARN

A group of high school students are taking Dubai's massage card problem into their own hands.

Five boys from Our Own High School Al Warqa'a have invented a smart 'collector' machine to put an end to the menace.

They're trying to get authorities to allow users of the machine, which is called E=MC2, to be rewarded with RTA service points when they throw massage cards into it.

The team behind the project told Dubai Eye 103.8's Agenda how it works.
