CHARLOTTE, NC – Passengers at Charlotte Douglas International Airport can now view security checkpoint wait times via CLT’s website and app before arriving at the terminal. The Airport has partnered with CrowdVision to provide the user-friendly amenity to flyers.
“Time is valuable, especially at an airport,” said Acting Aviation Director Haley Gentry. “This is a great tool that enhances the passenger experience by identifying the shortest security checkpoint wait time with a glance at your phone.”
The technology uses state-of-the-art Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensors that measure the reflection of light to gauge wait times.
“CrowdVision is proud and excited to be serving Charlotte Douglas International Airport,” said Sam Kamel, CrowdVision’s president of Americas. “We share their vision for transforming the passenger experience, making the entire curb-to-gate process more efficient, less frustrating and always focused on passenger safety.”
CrowdVision is a pioneer in visual analytics, working with airports and airlines worldwide, including Chicago O’Hare Airport, Delta Air Lines, London Heathrow Airport and Narita Japan Airport. The pilot project is available through spring 2021 while CLT explores this technology and evaluates a permanent wait-time reporting system.

PAVIX: Proven Winner for All Airport Concrete Infrastructure
International Chem-Crete Corporation (ICC) manufactures and sells PAVIX, a unique line of crystalline waterproofing products that penetrate into the surface of cured concrete to fill and seal pores and capillary voids, creating a long lasting protective zone within the concrete substrate.
Once concrete is treated, water is prevented from penetrating through this protective zone and causing associated damage, such as freeze-thaw cracking, reinforcing steel corrosion, chloride ion penetration, and ASR related cracking.
This white paper discusses how the PAVIX CCC100 technology works and its applications.
