Airport Entrance and Security Access Solutions

Passenger Terminal Expo is the leading international airport terminal conference and exhibition, facilitating debate and the sharing of ideas on the challenges facing the airport and airline industry. For Boon Edam, a leading manufacturer of self-boarding security lanes and airport terminal flow management solutions, it offers the perfect opportunity to introduce the latest innovations in self-boarding.

New technologies in self-boarding
Self-service is changing the global air traffic market at a rapid pace; online check-in, self-boarding and self-service kiosks were still relatively unknown as recently as 5 years ago, today we cannot image air travel without them. Boon Edam is now taking the next step in self-boarding and presents several new technologies at Passenger Terminal Expo 2012:

• Facial recognition (PASS2 integration);
• Passport reading;
• NFC technology (Near Field Communication);
• 2D barcode reading.

PASS2 Facial recognition
PASS2 facial recognition integrates Infrared facial recognition biometric technology (AIR biometric engine and Image+ IR cameras). This system is being utilised at Heathrow airport. It has been tested and meets UK Border Force (Heathrow) security standards for the control of passenger access / egress to the Common Departure Lounges (CDLs) at Heathrow Airport.

Boon Edam underlines the flexibility of its Airport Swinglane self-boarding security lane by showing the above mentioned authorisation systems. Emphasis is put to the fact that each technology can be applied separately or combined as an integrated solution. The full range of options and advantages will be explained in detail at stand no 2160 at Passenger Terminal Expo 2012 from 18 to 20 April in Vienna, Austria.

To learn more make an appointment to fully explore the advantages and possibilities of self-boarding and visit Boon Edam at stand no 2160 at Passenger Terminal Expo 2012.

The Airport Swinglane was the first self-boarding security lane to be officially certified for use on the AirportConnect CUTE/CUPPS Platform by SITA and by the Association of European Airlines (AEA) according to the latest AEA 2009 regulations and standards. This certification recognises the high quality and exceptional security standards that have been achieved by the Airport Swinglane.
