For better monitoring over international ships, particularly over their gangways after their berthing, we have designed and developed a special seaport gangway monitoring system. The system realizes remote electronic monitoring over the target people at wharf gangways and ship gangways (such as foreign seamen, port staff, outsiders with frequent access to the restricted areas of ports and people with temporary access to these areas) with help of new intelligence technologies such as OCR technology, human biometric feature (fingerprint, face information and vein) identification technologies, wireless data transmission technology and monitoring and alarming.
The system provides more control means and reduces the workload of front-line inspectors. It enables the attendants at ship gangways to identify illegal passengers to ships and supervises the boarding and disembarking behaviors of passengers effectively, avoiding illegal immigration and realizing real mobile law enforcement.
