Technavio’s market research analyst predicts that the global airport automated security screening market will post a CAGR of nearly 5% during the forecast period. One of the primary drivers for the market is the increasing security threats. To prevent threats such as hijacking and placing explosives in an aircraft, the airport authorities are gradually increasing the need for implementing effective passenger security screening systems all over the globe. Solutions like a biometric-based automated passenger verification system which is a next-generation security solution implemented by the London's Gatwick Airport is a fine example of innovation in the market. A solution developed with Human Recognition Systems, a UK-based technology developer and the airport authorities, allows informed gate control and alert decisions driven by precise passenger movement information. Fitted with an iris recognition technology to admit passengers along with automated boarding trial for passengers, the system allows you to check-in and deposit registered luggage through designated self-service bag drops. The technology lessens any sort of human error during the identification of the individual by lining up a passenger’s biometric information to an identification protocol, which in turn, allows the airport authorities to authenticate passengers through numerous stages of the process along with managing passengers across identity points.
One of the latest trends that will gain traction in the global airport automated security screening market is the evolution of the biometrics technology. The adoption of biometric technology can prevent the misuse of staff and contractor ID badges to gain entrée to unauthorized areas. The technology is extremely cost-efficient and dependable. In addition to several biometric technologies such as fingerprint, retina, face, and iris recognition, the introduction of palm vein detection that uses infrared technology to scan the blood vein patterns of passengers and confirm pre-stored features of the registered card users, will also increase the adoption of biometric technology for airport screening.
