Fast and accurate baggage handling
Once the 43km system is completed, an extensive system with the full length of 184㎞ is established. 184㎞ is roughly the distance of making two round trips between Incheon Airport and Seoul. Despite its complexity, the system can handle baggages quickly and accurately. In addition, the system uses explosive detection equipment integrated in lines with the BHS to inspect all baggages with speed and thoroughness.
Quick and accurate BHS
(Baggage delay rate 0.0002%)
Features of BHS from phase 4
Application of innovative technologies for advanced baggage service Improved Baggage Reading Rate Baggage tag reading through optical character recognition (OCR)
- Camera-based ATR
(Automatic Tag Reader) - After photographing a bag-tag, tracking and sorting baggage by recognizing(OCR*) the tag number according to the barcode and the characters such as flight, date, destination etc. * OCR: Optical Character Recognition
Strengths
Improved recognition rate compared to the existing laser method
Excellent responsiveness to malfunction in computers and networks
