Bishkek:New AI-powered border control booths have been installed at Manas International Airport, featuring advanced technology to enhance the efficiency of passenger checks. The booths are equipped with cameras, a document recognition system, and a translator supporting approximately 50 languages, as announced by Manasbek Samidinov, head of Airports of Kyrgyzstan OJSC.

According to 24.kg News Agency, the equipment was jointly purchased with the State Border Service. The implementation of these booths is expected to simplify and expedite border control procedures significantly.

Samidinov highlighted the multifunctionality of the booths, which are equipped with modern technology, including artificial intelligence. The translation systems and security features are designed to assist border guards. Notably, the cameras are positioned in the lower part of the booths, eliminating the need for officers to request passengers to lift their children for document checks.

The system's capability to translate speech into around 50 languages is complemented by specialized devices that verify document authenticity. Additionally, the booths feature safes to store official equipment and stamps securely, accessible via Face ID or fingerprint recognition.

Samidinov noted that the new booths comply with international security standards, aiming to provide faster service to passengers.
