It 'been such a day indelibly etched in my memory as the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy or the explosion of the Challenger space shuttle. Indeed, who could forget the events of 11 September 2001? On that day terrorists flew hijacked passenger plane into the World Trade Center towers each. A third hijacked plane flew into the Pentagon, while a fourth crashed in Pennsylvania. Immediately after 9-11, all commercial banks in the U.S.and private flights were grounded. In the years after 9-11, security at airports and aircraft was skyrocketing increases. Security cameras play an important role in the war on terror.
The first line of defense
Since 9-11, the countries have paid a lot of money into airport security. Want to hear from travelers at airports when walking security check-in, around, just step out of the plane safely. Particular have been subjected to security checks at the camera systems to the airportsome significant changes. The most effective include not only the same airports, but also the perimeter and each aircraft at the airport. Both hidden surveillance cameras hidden and not allow the crew to anyone who embarks, causing them to monitor the safety of aircraft. In addition, use of surveillance cameras in various countries of different capacities. In Washington DC, the capital of the United States, the video monitor to observe a network of hundreds of videos wasCameras, including those in the domestic airports are in a police command center of the room. In Singapore, we plan to install hundreds of surveillance cameras in Changi International Airport. The purpose of these cameras, it is questionable to see the packages and keep pace with the passengers actions.
Tools of the Trade
Several new technological tools have enhanced the use of surveillance cameras in airports. For example, a digital video recorder or a DVR servervaluable to the airports. DVR Server can operate in different ways, such as the Air mode, how the earth, and how the parking lot, which makes all airports retrieval of large quantities of material be made more efficient. Also, a special software for use with airport security, to observe the objects and their actions in airport terminals. When actions deviate from "normal" behavior, security is notified. Finally, extreme CCTV surveillance, infrared cameras, in turn. This allows imagesbe taken at any time of day in any weather.
A Hot Topic
Airports are enough to do with their cameras and gadgets? Some experts argue that technology, perhaps the terrorists that might appear in The 9-11 attacks were arrested in various airports. This, they say, would have been possible, was the most advanced security systems. They note that three of the 19 suspects were taken in the attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center on the United States Government"Watch List". Many experts support the use of biometrics, facial recognition technology. Others are fighting for the use of surveillance cameras in the cabins of all commercial flights.
While the public strongly supports the security checks at airports added to prevent terrorist attacks, some people are about the ability of technology to violate people's privacy or other constitutional rights. They believe that the situation could be Orwell's "1984", in suchBig Brother government constantly monitors people's thoughts and actions. For example, many stakeholders are concerned that the databases of suspected terrorists, criminals and terrorists, or worse, someone with a driver's license.
In a post 9-11 world, with more security cameras in airports is based in each case to block attacks to justify similar. They expect, however, and the debate will be used where and to what extent security cameras at airportsFlights to proceed. Finally, issues related to security issues not to be trifled with.
