Example 2017 Checkpoint
No need to remove shoes, belts and watches
Passenger and bag matching with the use of biometrics
Advanced Technology X-ray systems and detection algorithms for screening of LAGs and personal electronics without the need to divest
Security Conference in September 2012. Widely appreciated and acknowledged as a sound foundation for the future of aviation security, the Checkpoint of the Future had successfully advanced from principle to plan.
"Flexible Lanes" will enable
appropriate screening based on risk assessment input without the need for dedicated or separate infrastructure
Security Scanners with automatic target recognition used as the primary screening method
Geneva & Heathrow Airport Biometric Identity Management Trial 2012
Putting the Plan into Practice A fundamental tenet of the Checkpoint of the Future is to apply screening measures on the basis of risk. Preliminary component testing towards the end of 2012 therefore focused on experimentation into two areas, firstly into passenger identity management and how biometrics could be introduced into the screening process and secondly into the screening technology itself and how laptops and other large electrical items could remain in a passengers hand luggage, while being effectively and efficiently screened. Operational trials were conducted in Geneva, London Heathrow and Amsterdam Schiphol airports, with support from nine other Expert Group members, to achieve the first live evaluations of the building blocks that would contribute to a Checkpoint of the Future.
As we move into 2013, test and evaluation activity will dramatically increase, with activity across the globe. Efforts will focus on experimentation and validation of the 2014 Blueprint modules, to support the realisation of a first generation Checkpoint of the Future. Development activity for the 2017 and 2020 visions will also commence to ensure they are ready and available for the travelling public to enjoy and that a system less characterised by hassle and intrusiveness and more associated with speed and convenience becomes available. The future is uncertain and impossible

to predict. From the challenges of the threat to the opportunities of technology, this is an exciting time for aviation security as the Checkpoint of the Future becomes reality, driving forward robust security, maximised operational efficiencies and improving the passenger experience for us all. Four words written down in early 2010 are now well on their way to keeping us forearmed against those who wish to cause us harm. Through a collective effort, the aviation sector will achieve success.
