The University of Luxembourg’s Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT), together with lux-Airport, has field-tested a hi-tech airport security system, paving the way for a future without random searches and lengthy queues.
A team of scientists, technicians and lux-Airport staff worked through the night to test the intelligent end-to-end system, which analyses a passenger’s onsite behaviour, travel history and booking profile to classify them according to their ‘trustworthiness’. It then funnels Passengers into different risk-based levels of security screening (Trusted, Normal and Enhanced Risk).
FLYSEC, an EU-funded consortium of 11 partners, including the University of Luxembourg and lux-Airport, spent three years developing the system, which they put through its paces in a final field-test at Luxembourg Airport. The team installed sophisticated sensors throughout the airport to track 100 actors – playing the role of passengers – as they made their way from landside to boarding, enacting different scenarios.
Within the system, airport staff benefit from a range of state-of-the-art technology. Smart kiosks verify travel documents and use Passenger Name Record data to identify unusual booking and travel profiles. Meanwhile, using movement pattern analysis, the system alerts staff to suspicious behaviour within the airport. A web platform brings all of this information together to provide holistic airport monitoring and scenario simulation, while mobile apps provide security staff with on-the-ground operational and incident support.
