Coalition of the willing: aviation worker screening success story @DFW

Rohde & Schwarz, together with Dallas Fort Worth, aims to create a new de facto standard for US aviation worker screening. The R&S QPS Walk2000 millimeter-wave security scanner was developed specifically to support high-volume security screening in a wide range of operations requiring rapid and accurate screening for metallic and non-metallic threats. In a collaborative approach with DFW, Rohde & Schwarz optimized the system’s detection SW for aviation worker screening to eliminate the required removal of employee badges, name tags, outerwear and belts, supporting efficient aviation worker screening, especially during shift changes.

The audience will learn:

• Coalition of the willing: close collaboration between airports and OEMs produces great innovation
• There's a new, modern solution for aviation worker (and airline crew) screening that considers the specific demands of security lanes
• Millimeter-wave walk-through screening has the potential to modernize and expedite the way security screening happens at airports today
