Leveraging LiDAR, Wi-Fi, cameras, and sensors to create efficient and reliable passenger flow monitoringAirports are continuously seeking innovative ways to improve passenger flow, reduce bottlenecks, enhance overall operational efficiency and increase commercial revenues. This virtual panel explored the transformative role of smart technologies – including Lidar, Wi-Fi, cameras, and sensors – in revolutionising how airports monitor and manage passenger movement.

Our panel of experts discussed how these technologies are being deployed to provide real-time data, enabling airports to anticipate crowd patterns, optimise staffing, and ensure seamless passenger experiences. From Lidar’s precision in spatial tracking to Wi-Fi’s ability to gather anonymised movement data, this session highlighted case studies and best practices for integrating these systems into existing airport infrastructure.

Attendees will gain insights into the future of airport management, understanding how smart technology not only improves passenger flow but also enhances safety, reduces operational costs, aligns with sustainability goals and increases commercial revenues.
