Day 3 - 27 March
Session: Baggage Processing, Tracking & Identification

12:20 - 12:50 - Logiscan hand bag-check project: daily airport operations
Synopsis: The presentation is an update (one year later) on the Logiscan hand bag-check project that was presented in Geneva. Bologna Airport realised a series of automated machines located at the airport security control, designed to automatically carry out the following procedures: check the boarding card through barcode 2D and other technologies; verify the compliance of the cabin baggage in terms of weight and size (comparison with baggage allowances of the airlines); in case of extra-weight cabin baggage, verify the payment and then allow the passenger to pass through the next x-ray security control. We will show you the Logiscan test results.

Audience will learn:

• How to use an innovative technology to optimise the hand bag-check and passenger flow, and improve the passenger experience
