3. INTRODUCTION
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging branch of computer science concerned with
building smart machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence.
Artificial intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines,
especially computer systems.
The artificial intelligence is the process in which machine can act like a human. This robust
feature allows working in various fields easily. Some of primary application areas where the AI
can massively used is Military, Antiterrorism, Airport Security, Automobile Industry, Internet
Search Engines and Robotics etc
4. IMPORTANCE OF AI IN SECURITY

6. IDENTIFY RISKY BEHAVIOURS
Currently Humans are responsible for
detecting risky behavior in passengers,
which have big room for errors.
This could be done by collecting data
from security screenings, behavior
tracking, booking and travel history, and
more. So, the security of passengers and
the public wouldn’t only rely on a person’s
judgment, rather risky behavior could be
identified with end-to-end data.
7. DETECTING WEAPONS
Security cameras recognize in real-time if
someone holds a gun and automatically
triggers alarm.
AI Video analytics integrated in the camera
app is able to distinguish weapons from
harmless objects like smartphones, keys,
pens or umbrellas.
8. HOW DOES IT
WORK?
It captures 3D radar images.
Then, the tool analyzes those images and video.
Detect any kind weapons.
If any, then alert
Hexwave can also detect weapons in bags and
luggage as well. These Hexwave units will be placed
outside of airport terminals so that threats can be
detected before they even get inside.
9. FACIAL RECOGNITION
It deals with the high-level understanding
of digital images or videos.
Software reads the geometry of your face.
Key factors include the distance between
your eyes and the distance from forehead
to chin.
Prevent terrorism and protect borders.
10. HOW DOES IT
WORKS?
Face Recognition Operations:
1. Face Detection : The camera will detect and recognize a
face.
2. Face Analysis: The photo of the face is captured and
analyzed.
3. Image to Data Conversion: Now it is converted to a
mathematical formula and these facial features become
numbers.
4. Match Finding: Then the code is compared against a
database of other face prints.
11. CONCLUSION
While AI-powered security tools like full-body scanners, behavior analysis, and face
recognition may be unnerving to some, they’re necessary tools to prevent threats and keep
passengers safe. With the power of artificial intelligence, airports and airlines will soon be able
to improve security and provide a better customer experience to travelers at the same time.
And AI-powered security tools are constantly advancing, so there’s no telling what more
they’ll be able to do in the near future.
