AIRPORTS SECURITY
Security cameras play an increasingly important role in overall airport security, both inside passenger terminals and in cargo areas. Cameras participate in the security checks that are an integral part of modern airline activities. They record and monitor the passage of people, luggage, and cargo in outdoor drop-off points, in transit to planes, and in final exit from the carriers. They also monitor airplane hangars, cargo storage areas, and taxiways. Airport terminals generally include large windows, skylights, and lots of metal, which makes it challenging for traditional security cameras to operate effectively.
Common security camera problems for airports include:
• Lack of detail in high-contrast and backlight conditions, under fluorescent lights, or outdoors
• Low clarity in shadows
• Image wash-out in glare or with reflections from glass and metal
• Color inaccuracies in varying lighting conditions
• Low-quality DVR recordings
XTS VIDEO Security equipment enable airport security officials to clearly capture details of passengers, luggage, cargo, and airport and airline employees, even in variable and challenging lighting conditions and despite poor-quality DVRs. In the case of a security incident or theft, the accurate images made possible by Pixim DPS technology help airport officials to identify people or objects of interest, including suspected perpetrators. In addition, the cameras can be used to thwart potential threats, for instance identifying people going the wrong direction in a terminal, behaving suspiciously, or stealing. Cameras can even be used to recognize luggage left unattended for too long. The images captured by security cameras can be used to reconstruct the flow of people and cargo before, during, and after an incident, helping both to prevent problems and to prosecute criminals. Additionally, the cameras can act as supplemental security officers, enabling fewer people to more effectively monitor an entire airport.
