A New Concept of Airport Security Screening

Airport security measures serve to protect the traveling public, crew and aircraft. According to the TSA over 600 million passengers travel on commercial airlines and more than 700 million pieces of luggage are screened each year [2]. With such a large number of people traveling, airports and aircraft have become natural targets for terrorists. We propose a new concept of airport security screening measures that connects all airport security screening equipment for passengers and their belongings together from the onset of their check-in. Utilizing historical and profiling passenger information and the global security threat level to adapt and optimize the screening level and process for each screening device, it will streamline all check-in activities while drastically improving the overall quality of screening.
