The new BlipTrack technology calculates and predicts the number of people standing in line and for how long they have been waiting at various checkpoints throughout the airport.

BlipTrack will provide the airport with live and empirical data insights on passenger queue times.
Using this information, the airport can monitor the queue line density at the security checkpoint. The system will allow airport management to respond promptly to disruptions.
