superior since 1972

Unique features of APIS++ dramatically improve safety and significantly reduce turn-around time.

• FMT invented the Visual Docking Guidance System (VDGS) in 1972 and has continued to innovate since

• Exclusive FMT azimuth guidance system provides real-time uninterruptable azimuth guidance visible to both pilots

• APIS++ is a reliable, fast and easy system to setup and manage

• High redundancy through the use of of independent sub systems

• Only APIS++ can individually identify an aircraft with 100% certainty

• Internal camera for stand surveillance and to record events on the stand

• Only APIS++ can guide the pilot even prior to laser aircraft identification

• Azimuth guidance is totally independent from the laser and can be provided at a distance of 200m

• A patented feature continuously verifies laser measurements against the ground during the whole docking process

• Only APIS++ has azimuth guidance that provides continuous and accurate guidance in real time

• Laser accuracy exceeds ICAO Annex 14 standard and allow the Passenger Boarding Bridge to automatically connect to the aircraft

• Only APIS++ performs obstacle scanning before and during the docking process
