Airports can be frustrating. Between long lines, complicated security protocols and lost baggage, a fun vacation or an important work trip can easily become a stressful experience.
University of Florida researchers are working to make that experience smoother by using digital twin technology and artificial intelligence to mimic a real-life airport in action and to design systems that anticipate and prevent problems.
The Strategic Partnerships for Enhancing Airport Resilience (SPEAR) study is being done by faculty from UF Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS) Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering (ABE) and is funded by the National Science Foundation.
