Airport security screening systems have been utilized at airports to perform security checks for several decades. Initially screening at the airports were done by the help of X-ray systems and metal detectors but with increase in complexity of threats, airports installed advance imaging technologies, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags and smart screening lanes to facilitate threat prevention and protection. Moreover, airport automated security screening systems helps in reduction of flight checking and boarding time significantly.
COVID-19 scenario analysis:
On account of the COVID-19 outbreak, airports have been closed and locked down which reduced the demand for airport security screening systems market faced a downturn.
Airport security screening system makers faced multiple problems in operations due to disruption of supply chain associated with raw materials & components, caused by the mandatory lockdown implemented to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Delay in the under-way projects of airport security screening systems upgradation and construction was faced by airports, in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic.
Demand for smart security systems to minimize human interaction pushes the market demand upward for airport security screening system.
Top impacting factors: market scenario analysis, trends, drivers and impact analysis
Incorporation of IT with airport security, progression in biometrics technology, and expansion of acceptance in private security are the factors that drive the airport automated security screening systems market. However, high cost associated with airport screening systems restricts the market growth. Contrarily, modernization of airport security systems, increasing number of security threats, new airport construction and artificial intelligence present new opportunities in the industry.
The airport automated security screening systems market trends are as follows:
Incorporation of IT with airport security
Integration of Information Technology (IT) and Information Technology Enabled Services (ITeS) with airport assist the airport security to maintain advanced levels of security and reduce passenger wait time. Moreover, airports invest in advance and innovative technologies to enhance the flow of luggage and people at the checkpoint. For instance, in September 2019, Gatwick with Human Recognition Systems (UK-based technology developer) and the airport authorities on a permanent basis implemented facial-recognition cameras for ID checks before passenger boards the plane and became the UK's first airport to do so. The aforementioned system permits informed gate control and alert decisions with the help of precise passenger movement information. Hence, steady investments in airport around the world to enhance the efficiency of airport security system is anticipated to drive the airport automated security screening systems market.
Progression in biometrics technology
Aviation industry observed rise in widespread use of biometric authentication technology within the airport establishment which include facial, fingerprint and even iris and retina scanners. These technologies enable faster & safer operation of the airport. For instance, in November2018, Delta Airlines an Atlanta based airline launched first biometric terminal at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and expanded to 4 more terminals namely Los Angeles, Detroit, -St Paul, Salt Lake City and Minneapolis. Huge investments made in modernization of the airport terminal is expected to improve the demand for airport automated security screening systems market.
