Airport passenger flow and
queue analytics.

AI computer vision on existing CCTV monitoring passenger movement and immigration queue conditions in real time — surfaced in Power BI dashboards and a mobile app used by ground staff, partners, and management.

Real-time density + queue conditions plus a rich historical dataset

Reactive operations. No visibility of queues.

An international airport wanted to improve its understanding of passenger movement across key zones, particularly within immigration halls where long queues often created delays and dissatisfaction. Without accurate, real-time visibility of passenger volumes or queue lengths, the airport struggled to optimise staffing, manage peak periods, or proactively address congestion. Operational decisions were largely reactive, and the absence of historical queue data made it difficult to predict demand or improve long-term planning.

Our approach

AI on existing cameras. Real-time and historical, side by side.

AI models were trained to detect and count passengers across different airport zones, measure queue lengths within immigration, and track patterns throughout the day. Real-time density and queue insights were surfaced alongside a growing historical dataset — visualised in Power BI and pushed into a mobile app for the people running the floor.

The Technology

Computer vision on the cameras you already have.

Eye4.ai's video analytics layer ran directly on existing CCTV infrastructure — no new sensors, no new hardware. Insights flowed into Power BI and the operational mobile app via a single analytics platform.
