This system uses artificial intelligence to predict when airport security screening equipment is likely to fail, allowing maintenance teams to act before a breakdown occurs. It is operated by the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority and is currently in development. The system primarily affects equipment availability rather than individual travellers, and its outputs are used internally by maintenance staff.
