Summary
Both the Blaster Advantage and Del Sol models
have the ability to provide the airline industry with on-demand,
scannable barcodes for boarding passes and checked baggage.
The Cognitive Solution
In order to step up airline safety, in 2002 the US Congress passed a
law stating that all checked luggage must be screened for explosives.
This is a change from the random search of checked baggage at most
airports. One way to fill this tall order is for airlines to put into
action the practice of matching every bag that goes into the belly of a
plane to a passenger on board.
The new process of
bag-matching will involve scanning tags on bags loaded onto planes, and
comparing bag tags to passenger lists. If a passenger doesn't get on a
flight, that traveler's bags will be removed. This is all done in an
effort to prevent luggage with bombs to be checked onto a plane without
the passenger actually being on the flight.
Fortunately, Cognitive's
Blaster Advantage and Del Sol barcode printers are perfectly suited for
this task. Each of the airlines will need a system of printing and
inventorying barcodes to keep up with these new standards and
Cognitive's printers are up to the challenge. In the future, Cognitive's
printers can make the skies a safer place.
