Thales Gemalto ABC eGates

Thales Gemalto Automated Border Control (ABC)

The new Thales Gemalto ABC eGates combine expertise in document verification, passenger biometric authentication with an optimized and modular hardware solution to automate border control.

They provide greater flexibility with regards to the airport floor and passenger flow management and process passengers faster.

Now you can deliver a smoother passenger journey and facilitate entry and exit management.

New eGates key Benefits

Automation of the border control process with state of the art passenger authentication software leveraging biometric data contained in the ePassport and captured live at the gate,
Reduced waiting times and passengers carrying out the checks themselves in just a few seconds, allowing for greater empowerment and more dwell time in a duty-free area,
Flexibility in terms of hardware design and process management for the benefit of both airports and border authorities.

Designed to fit with your entry and exit processes:

Regardless of the hardware configuration, the ABC gate system includes gate central management, gate monitoring, and integration to the border system.

The ABC gate solution supports face and fingerprint biometrics. Iris is also available as an option.

Several models are available.

             2-door segregated                      2-door integrated

Two-door models

• 2-door e-Gate with a mantrap
• Available with a segregated or an integrated process management
• Ideal for Entry Management

                                                                        1-door integrated

One-door model

• Minimal footprint with 1-door gate
• No mantrap, integrated document, and identity authentication process.
• Ideal for expediting Exit Management

Besides the strong demand for self-service to handle entry and exit controls, there is a need for greater deployment flexibility. Thales’s latest ABC solution combines strengthened security, enhanced passenger experience with greater operational flexibility.

Thales’s latest ABC gate design allows for accelerated border control processes while giving a modular hardware design flexibility.

• Speed up your exit controls and optimize airport floor management with one door ABC gates
• Strengthen and streamline your entry management with 2-door ABC gates.
• Comply with the latest regulatory standards and embrace the full potential of biometrics with multi-modal biometric authentication

The new e-Gate offers speed, convenience, and security through:

• A user-driven design to maximize traveler acceptance, without compromising on security
• A reduced footprint and deployment flexibility with hardware modularity
• Frictionless and accelerated border control in less than 15 seconds
• Last generation e-Passport readers
• Facial Recognition software with liveness detection
• Multiple biometric modalities with face, fingerprint, and iris​

The three key Benefits our clients value most.

1. Flexible and modular

   A choice of form factors to adapt to the floor space, control level, and future evolutions in passenger traffic: one door, 2-door ABC gate, integrated or segregated control process, ABC kiosks.

2. Fastest facial recognition

   Designed to have passengers look intuitively towards the camera to capture their face on-the-fly and provide fast matching results. Enabled with best in class face recognition software allowing for matching in less than 2 seconds.

3. Best Document Authentication

   Equipped with document readers recognized worldwide and with a document authentication software allowing to manage updates from one central post, and automatically delivered in the field. Border guards can add new travel documents to the eligible list and add or modify verification actions
