Security is an important part of airport operations. LiDAR or light detection and ranging is used to boost airports' security and efficiency. With increased shootings and stabbings at airports, airports have adopted advanced security systems such as video surveillance and access control. LiDAR is also used in airports to enhance security, operational efficiency as well as passenger experience. LiDAR works by way of shooting laser pulses into the environment; the pulses bounce off objects and return to the sensor, allowing the system to draw a highly detailed 3D map of the surroundings. This is an advantage when there are dense areas of people. This technology can track intruders.

[] The ultimate goal of AI research is to provide the tools, techniques, and methods for building usable systems that make decisions or assist in making decisions that model and "understand" the world, gather relevant knowledge, and act responsibly. In many cases, the decisions and actions are associated with high risks, and certain assurance or robustness is required from the system that uses AI components. What are the ultimate questions that we need to answer in order to build the required runtime robustness for our systems? We'll explore the central role that three types of unknowns play in our quest for robustness. These are the unobserved entities that need our research attention to make any assurance guarantees. First, we'll analyze the unknown observations that we need to deal with at runtime. Next, we'll explore the unknown features – the additional dimensions along which we need to reason and that are needed to rely upon at decision time. Finally, we'll discuss the unknown constraints – the unknown functions that we need to optimize against.
