Human Recognition Systems

MFlow Exit Lanes has been designed primarily for use in airports, it automates the secure flow of passengers from security restricted areas to non secure areas, using video analytic technology. It monitors specific human behaviours and events and uses alerts and 'anti back-track' physical security barriers to control and manage the flow of people.

MFow Exit Lanes is the only product successfully deployed at UK regulated airports to remove the necessity of security officers managing 'anti back-track'.

How it works

Behavioural analytic software is used to monitor an identified zone and provide early detection and warning of attempted security breaches or suspicious behaviour that occurs within the environment.  Once the zone is identified the software is programmed to recognise certain behaviours and events that take place within the zone. This triggers a response from the system:

• If a person approaches the monitored zone from a non-security restricted area known as a ‘safe zone’ and crosses the ‘Warning Line’ (the first virtual boundary) an audio announcement is played to advise the person to stop and return to the safe zone
• If a person continues past the ‘Warning line’ and attempts to move from the monitored zone to the security restricted area and crosses the ‘Violation line’ (the second virtual boundary), an alarm will sound on the monitoring station and the security doors will close, preventing the person from entering into the security restricted area
• If a person loiters in the monitored zone, a full alert is executed on the monitoring station when individuals are tracked within the monitored zone for longer than 60 seconds
• If an object is left unattended within the zone, a full alert is executed on the monitoring station when an object is left within a monitored zone for longer than 60 seconds

Features:

• Prevents unauthorised people attempting to gain access to or pass objects into restricted areas
• Controlled and monitored using configurable behavioural analytic software to provide early detection and warning of breaches within the environment
• Anti back-track doors prevent unauthorised access into secure zones
• Warning alerts are generated when the violation line is crossed in the incorrect direction allowing for authorised personnel to respond immediately to emerging situations in real time
• Removes the reliance on security officers

Why choose MFlow Exit Lanes?

• It provides an enhanced security level against intruders trying to gain access to or pass objects into security restricted areas
• To cut operating costs by reducing dependence on security guards to manage passenger flow throughout airports
• It takes away the dependence of the human eye identifying suspicious behaviour which can be increasingly challenging at peak times of traffic
• To get measureable and consistent data to enable the security team to monitor activity within security restricted areas
• It easily integrates with existing legacy systems including CCTV infrastructures and door access systems
