Border Security Kiosk Solutions
Automated border control and custom security automation platforms.
Border Security Kiosk Solutions Overview
With border security becoming an ever-increasing concern in the United States, airports and other access points need an effective way to manage the flow of international travelers. Self-Service Border Security Kiosks are assisting with that challenge. Security kiosks help governments dramatically cut costs while still meeting several mandated security standards. Document scanning and passenger verification enable an efficient and secure entry, without the traditional manual steps of paper forms and long lines. KIOSK’s deployed solutions include Registered Traveler enrollment and screening programs and border security automation for the United States and Mexican customs gates.
Attributes of Border Security Kiosks
Value Drivers
In cooperation with our premier Government software partners, KIOSK has implemented multiple generations of the Global Entry self- service program for the Department of Homeland Security – Customs and Border Protection (CPB). The Global Entry platform enables vetted international travelers to use expedited lanes at U.S. airports and when crossing international borders.
Value drivers of border security kiosks include:
- Expedited CPB processing
- Reduced wait times
- Minimizing crowding at customs
Travelers apply in advance of their trip, and upon re-entry to the United States they simply scan their documents, verify their identity and passport scan, and complete a customs declaration. The kiosk then issues the passenger a transaction receipt and directs them to a Customs agent to complete the process.
Product Features
Border Security Kiosks incorporate all the tools live CPB agents use for screening, allowing low-risk travelers to complete the process and be on their way. Kiosks can also be programmed to provide service in a variety of languages, to efficiently accommodate international passengers. The ROI associated with eliminating manual document scanning and passenger screening at scale explains why airports around the world are consistently investing in automating these repetitive, but critical processes.
Border security and airline kiosk features generally include:
- Biometric identification components
- Camera(s)
