PARIS, FRANCE AND IRVING, TX / ACCESS Newswire / October 1, 2025 / NEC Corporation of America (NEC), a leader in identity management and IT solutions integration for enterprise and government infrastructure, and Outsight, a global provider of Spatial AI technology, today announced a strategic collaboration to deliver advanced airport operational intelligence solutions.
Integrated solution provides real-time spatial awareness
The companies are combining NEC's comprehensive airport technology platform with Outsight's proven 3D LiDAR Spatial Intelligence capabilities.
The solution integrates Outsight's Spatial AI technology directly into NEC's airport management systems, providing real-time 3D understanding of airport environments.
This combined platform supports a wide range of operation and passenger experience improvements, including:
Better passenger flow management with precise crowd density monitoring
Greater operational efficiency through real-time spatial analytics
Stronger security capabilities via automated behavioral analysis
Data-informed decisions using comprehensive 3D environmental insights
Real-world deployment brings results
These capabilities are already being realized at a major international airport in North America, where the integrated system delivers anonymized spatial analysis at TSA checkpoints. The technology estimates queue density, passenger flow and wait times, with data shared on lobby displays to support real-time communication and travel awareness.
"Our first implementation and collaboration with Outsight shows how our integrated approach delivers not only practical value for airport operations, but real-time awareness to travelers," said Bill Carleton, Director at NEC Corporation of America. "We're excited to showcase this proven solution to the aviation industry."
NEC and Outsight at World Aviation Festival in Lisbon
NEC and Outsight will showcase the integrated solution at World Aviation Festival in Lisbon from Oct. 7-9, 2025, with live demonstrations of airport deployment data. Attendees can experience firsthand how the combined platform delivers comprehensive Spatial Intelligence for modern airport operations.
"Our partnership with NEC brings together complementary technologies that solve real airport challenges and that are rapidly being deployed at scale globally," said Raul Bravo, President and co-founder of Outsight. "The Lisbon demo will show aviation professionals how LiDAR Spatial AI integrates seamlessly with existing airport infrastructure."
Technology stack combines LiDAR, AI and airport management systems
Outsight's Spatial Intelligence Platform, based on LiDAR technology, captures and analyzes precise 3D environmental data. NEC's platform processes and contextualizes this information for airport operations teams. Together, the technologies provide:
A real-time motional digital twin of airport spaces
Automated detection and anonymized tracking of people and objects
Behavioral pattern analysis to enhance security and efficiency
Integration with existing airport systems
Scalable use across a range of airport environments
