Airport Security

It's every traveler's worst nightmare. The terminal is shut down for hours because a suspicious package is discovered or someone breaches a security checkpoint. Thousands are delayed while the matter is investigated. In recent years, this scenario has played out time and again all across the country, but with help from Duos Technologies, airports can now take measures to avoid such occurrences, and potentially to stave off something much worse.

Using Duos' system of intelligent, real time, motion-sensitive video security cameras bundled with a computer-aided visualization platform, security personnel can instantly pinpoint a suspicious bag, or even track a person going the wrong way down a concourse. Duos incorporates Pyramid Vision "Video Flashlight™", "VisionAlert™", Virtual Security Shield (VSS™), and Airport Traffic Exit Control (ATEC™) technology to analyze video images and identify activities that may represent a security threat.

Some of the airport surveillance solutions Duos can provide:

• Automatic detection of intruders that breach a security checkpoint.
• Automatic detection of persons that loiter in a designated area.
• Automatic detection of suspicious objects left behind (or removed) within a user defined video security zone.
• Early detection of potential threats within and in proximity to the Air Operations Areas (AOA).
• Classification of the potential threats within and in proximity to the AOA.
• Verification of vehicles and individuals entering the secure area.
• Authentication of personnel either on foot or operating a vehicle in the secure area.
• Tracking of vehicles and personnel within and in proximity to the AOA.
• Prevention of unauthorized individuals from operating airport vehicles.
