More than 1,000,000 passengers have crossed the border at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol airport using the ABC eGates.
The ABC eGates were installed by a consortium, which also included Accenture and Vision-Box.
Vision-Box supplied the ABC eGates that today total 36 units, located in the Departure 3, Arrival 3 and transit area between Schengen and non-Schengen.
Vision-Box was also responsible for the gates transaction manager platform which controls how they operate, define the associated business rules and border checks processes.
The main benefits delivered by ABC eGates include:
- Better border control through automating the process and using the most advance technological innovations in biometric verification
- Empowerment of border control agents by allowing them to focus on added-value tasks that cannot be performed by machines and by supporting in the decision making process
- Ensuring a better passenger experience and simplifying the workflow
Vision-Box operates automated borders in more than 30 international airports and over 2,000 electronic identity systems in Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and Africa.
