Rohde & Schwarz, a world leader in AI-based millimeter wave screening technology, won an award to supply ECAC and TSA certified QPS201 AIT security scanners to passenger security screening checkpoints across 5 Airports of Thailand (AOT) managed Airports, including Thailand’s Suvarnabhumi airport – a single huge terminal serving both domestic and international passengers.
The QPS201 scanner model brings together advanced detection capabilities with efficient, intuitive procedures designed to benefit both passengers and staff. Using innovative millimeter wave technology and AI-based algorithms, the scanners meet regulatory requirements for identifying prohibited items while keeping false alarm rates low. The technology helps ensure that security measures remain both effective and user-friendly, improving the overall passenger experience. Passengers spend only a short time with a hands-down scan pose inside the security scanner, while any potential threats on their body are shown on a standardized digital avatar without revealing personal attributes. The system requires only milliseconds per scan and its open design and pose makes security screening easy and accessible for travellers.
The QPS201 achieved TSA qualification, approving it for use in US passenger security screening checkpoints and has achieved certification to TSA and European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) highest standards. There are more than 2,000 systems deployed in airports world-wide.
Airports of Thailand (AOT) appreciated the performance and accuracy of the QPS201 which provided faster security clearance and better passenger experience whilst enhancing security screening.
