FastPass: A Harmonized, Modular Reference System for all European Automatic Border Crossing Points

FastPass: A Harmonized, Modular Reference System for all European Automatic Border Crossing Points

Project Contents

Overview

FastPass will establish and demonstrate a harmonized, modular approach for Automated Border Control (ABC) gates. Border control is a major challenge for security and mobility within the EU. Travellers request a minimum delay and a speedy border crossing, while Border Guards must fulfil their obligation to secure the EUs borders against illegal immigration and other threats. Fastpass will serve both demands at the same time to keep security at the highest level while increasing the speed and the comfort for all legitimate travellers at all border control points aiming at a minimum of privacy intrusion.
