Airbags for home yo!!!

The Japanese has devised an airbag that can raise a house 3cm off the ground to protect it from earthquakes. Sensors on the airbag detect when a quake starts and ends, and gently deflates the airbags afterwards. The first anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan that killed more than 15,000 people last year is on March 11th.
