24 May 2023 - The system, which was completed in September, is a one-way corridor featuring three full height doors and two half height gates that ensure passengers are only exiting sterile side onto the non-secured side. There are four lanes for domestic arrivals and four lanes for the international arrivals.
The PILM 02 works via sensors within the lane that track passengers from their entry to their exit ensuring they are walking the correct direction.
Dormakaba Americas Business Development Manager Bill Seibert said the technology is replacing guards that used to sit at the gate and puts the technology into the hands of the airport. “There are sensors to detect objects left behind or objects dropped accidentally or on purpose, dropped there on the floor, and then we also have sensors on the unsecured side for thrown object detection for somebody trying to throw something into the lane,” Seibert said.
