SECURITY as outlined in the figure below, allows for significantly higher lane throughput, theoretically to 900 passengers per hour, depending on other operational factors. The flat panel design and architecture of the new eAIT supports new checkpoint layouts and designs that allow precious checkpoint space to be used more rationally and in new configurations. Just as important, the panels of the eAIT slide inward to provide maintenance access to it or surrounding security equipment. This means that security equipment can be installed close to each other further conserving space and reclaiming the valuable checkpoint real estate lost today to provide extra space for maintenance access. eAIT scanners can be deployed side-by-side and even directly against walls. Never before has new technology helped airports consume less space and provide radically different design options. The eAIT scanner has been designed with American Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance in Flat panels on new eAIT (right) move inward for maintenance reducing overall layout requirements.
