Frankfurt Airport is relying on modernized security checks: In cooperation with Rohde & Schwarz, the airport operator Fraport will install over 100 new R&S QPS201 body scanners to make passenger checks faster and more efficient. These scanners work with millimeter wave technology and artificial intelligence and, according to Fraport, should ensure more precise detection while minimizing false alarms. The use of this technology means that passengers will have to go through additional security checks less often in the future, as potential danger areas can be precisely displayed on an avatar. In a complementary pilot project, the R&S QPS Walk2000 is currently being tested, a walk-through scanner that allows passengers to walk through the check without stopping. This scanner, the world's first of its kind, could make it unnecessary to take off jackets and remove items from bags in the future, thus speeding up the process even further. The test is running in Terminal 1 of Frankfurt Airport and is designed to last for six months. In 2023, Fraport took over responsibility for security checks from the Federal Ministry of the Interior and is investing extensively in optimizing passenger handling. The new scanners, which have already been approved by the European Civil Aviation Conference, are intended to improve the screening process for the more than 50 million passengers annually at Germany's largest airport.
