Abstract

A system receives a digital representation of a biometric for a person, uses the digital representation of the biometric to determine and/or otherwise retrieve identity information associated with the person, and uses the identity information to perform one or more actions related to the person's presence in one or more areas. For example, the system may estimate a path for the person and signal an agent electronic device based on the path. In another example, the system may determine a presence of a person within the area and/or transmit information to an agent electronic device regarding the determined presence. In still another example, the system may receive a request to communicate with the person and forward the communication to the person using the identity information.

Claims (35)

1. A system for facilitating interaction with one or more people moving through at least one airport, comprising:

at least one non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions; and

at least one processor that executes the instructions to:

obtain an analysis of airport traffic for the at least one airport generated using at least identity information associated with a digital representation of biometric for a person associated with the at least one airport; and

shift personnel using the analysis.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor estimates a path for the person.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor tracks movement of the person along the path.

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor estimates the path for the person using at least one of an estimated current location of the person or the identity information.

5. The system of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor estimates an updated path for the person.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor estimates the updated path for the person using at least one of an estimated current location of the person or the identity information.

7. The system of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor shifts the personnel using the path for the person.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor signals opening of one or more security screening lanes or security screening locations.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor estimates that one security screening location will experience higher traffic than a second security screening location.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor redirects the personnel from the second security screening location to the first security screening location.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor signals closing of one or more security screening lanes or security screening locations.

12. A system for facilitating interaction with one or more people moving through at least one airport, comprising:

at least one non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions; and

at least one processor that executes the instructions to:

receive an indication that identity information is associated with a digital representation of a biometric for a person associated with the at least one airport; and

prioritize a first portion of airport traffic over a second portion of the airport traffic wherein the person is part of the first portion of the airport traffic or the second portion of the airport traffic; wherein:

the first portion of the airport traffic comprises people with sooner departing flights than the second portion of the airport traffic; and

the at least one processor determines that the people of the first portion of the airport traffic have the sooner departing flights using the identity information.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein prioritizing the first portion of the airport traffic over the second portion of the airport traffic involves transmitting at least one message to at least part of the first portion of the airport traffic.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the transmitting at least one message to at least part of the first portion of the airport traffic uses contact information stored in the identity information.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the at least one processor receives the indication from a biometric reader device.

16. The system of claim 12 , wherein the at least one processor receives the indication from a biometric identification system.

17. A system for facilitating interaction with one or more people moving through at least one airport, comprising:

at least one non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions; and

at least one processor that executes the instructions to:

receive an indication that identity information is associated with a digital representation of a biometric for a person associated with the at least one airport; and

prioritize a first portion of airport traffic over a second portion of the airport traffic wherein the person is part of the first portion of the airport traffic or the second portion of the airport traffic;

wherein the at least one processor prioritizes the first portion of the airport traffic over the second portion of the airport traffic by signaling an agent electronic device.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the first portion of the airport traffic comprises people with a different security status than the second portion of the airport traffic.

19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the at least one processor receives the indication from a biometric reader device.

20. The system of claim 17 , wherein the at least one processor receives the indication from a biometric identification system.
