UC2 (Greece-Bulgaria borders) - Intelligent and dynamic customs procedures for improved border-crossing experience on the road:
The objective of this UC is to demonstrate the capabilities of an integrated system (used by operators and travelers) that merges legacy border control systems involved in the day-to-day tasks of the border authorities with state-of-art deployable and mobile checking technologies. In doing this, Border Control operations will become less time-consuming, as well as more efficient and effective. A system will be built, that will integrate existing devices and systems used by the Hellenic Police at the Ormenio BCP, such as finger-print control devices, vehicle plate recognition system, etc.
The new devices/systems delivered by the FLEXI-cross partners will upgrade the security level and enable new, innovative border-control functions, such as ML-based platforms, drones and On-Board Units, which will be integrated into a single platform that will be accessible from both a base station and a mobile device that will collect and manage data from different devices, systems, sensors. The platform will send alerts to all involved operators, creating a common operating picture and could also support decision-making and cross-nation data sharing.
Demo Scenario: (a) Truck carrying hidden illegal material, (b) Truck carrying hidden migrants, (c) Rented car tries to cross the BCP, (d) Driver/passenger attempts to cross with false documents, and (e) Addressing sudden surge in incoming vehicles via a dynamic deployment of additional resources.
Facilities: (a) Ormenio BCP and, (b) publicly available 5G and IoT networks.
