Analyzing the Automatic Border Control System and Examining the Experience of Different Countries for Its Deployment to Make Smart Police

Automatic border control (ABC) is one of the new methods of border management using intelligent technologies to accelerate and facilitate traffic, as well as to improve security and efficiency, and can viewed as an example of digital transformation for making smart police. In this paper, the ABC systems are reviewed and the benefits and objectives of the deployment and types of these systems are examined, and the relationship of this system with related technologies and types of equipment is described. Since the deployment of the first ABC systems in the last 20 years until the end of February 2018, more than 4,800 electronic gates have been launched in 73 countries. Due to the wide range of technologies in this field, this system is now established in most countries, especially in Europe, North America, and East Asia. In this paper, the ABC programs of about 30 countries are reviewed, which the results show that the ABC system as a technology to facilitate the process of passenger control has had acceptable performance. Most countries, in addition to achieving the goals of facilitating and accelerating the process and providing security, as well as controlling migrants at borders, have taken steps to provide solutions or provide them through companies active in this field. It should be noted that the ABC system is an upgrade or complement to the existing border control process, and security considerations and border control policies should be observed and adapted to existing infrastructure. It is hoped that this research will be a step in the realization of these systems in our country and making our police smarter than before.
