The Challenge
The airport needed to modernize security in restricted baggage handling areas by replacing aging technology with a system that could accurately detect tailgating and oversized objects.
The Solution
FLEXIDOME cameras with IVA Pro were installed in security vestibules, utilizing custom scripting to identify when multiple people or hidden objects enter the area simultaneously.
The Results
The highly accurate, cost-effective system detects unauthorized entries in real time, instantly triggering alerts to the security operations center and automatically locking secondary doors.
“Our internal IT team worked closely with Bosch on this solution... The video solution is not dependent on a certain type of access system, so it can be deployed by others and is a cost-effective solution that integrates seamlessly with Genetec.”

The Challenge
Vancouver International Airport serves as a highly active global hub that must maintain uncompromising security standards without disrupting the continuous flow of operations. A critical component of this responsibility is managing access to restricted areas, such as baggage handling zones, where only authorized personnel are permitted to enter.
The Solution
To strengthen these access points, the airport implemented an intelligence-first video security solution tailored to the specific spatial context of its doorways. By deploying intelligent cameras with built-in video analytics, the system instantly detects if a second person attempts to follow an authorized worker through a vestibule or if a large cart is used to obscure someone from view.
The Results
When a risk is identified, the system automatically prevents the secondary door from unlocking and sends a real-time alert to the security operations center. By filtering out noise and delivering highly accurate understanding directly to operators, the airport has fortified its access control measures while removing operational friction, ensuring the environment remains secure and uninterrupted.
