Panoramic Surveillance and Intelligent Target Tracking Solution: Safeguarding Airport Security with Smart Technology

In the early hours of the morning, during peak flight activity at a major airport, an urgent alert was received by the control tower: a vehicle had entered the runway from the first taxiway on the east side of the tower. The situation called for an immediate response.

Leveraging XT’s Panoramic Monitoring and Intelligent Target Tracking Solution, the system instantly detected and tracked the intruding object in the video feed. It was quickly identified as a ground service vehicle that had mistakenly entered a restricted area. Flight support personnel promptly contacted the ground crew and guided the vehicle out of the controlled zone. Thanks to the system’s rapid detection and response capabilities, the incident was efficiently resolved, and flight operations continued without disruption.

Meeting Critical Demands in Airport Safety Management

XT’s solution is designed to address the core needs of airport security management. It supports:

• Real-time video surveillanceover runways, taxiways, and access routes;
• Timely detection and alertsfor unauthorized intrusions;
• Detection and trackingof low-altitude, slow-speed, and small aerial targets such as drones and birds;
• Live tracking and status analysisof aircraft during takeoff and landing, including landing gear monitoring to ensure flight safety.

To meet these challenges, XT introduces a three-tiered system architecture comprising front-end video acquisition, service-side processing, and terminal-side application. Key hardware components include:

• 180° panoramic intelligent surveillance cameras
• Intelligent target tracking cameras
• Video intelligence fusion processing servers
• Integrated panoramic monitoring and intelligent tracking terminals
