Thomas Campbell (born 1949) is a Scottish-born specialist and entrepreneur, in the area of human factors affecting performance of security screeners.
He was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1949. As an employee of BAA plc in 1996, Campbell developed an early library of threat-image projections (TIPs) for use in training and evaluating security-screening personnel at airports. The work supported basic research, by the UK Defence Research Establishments (DRE) at Newcastle Airport, on screeners' perceptions of X-ray images of containers bound for airline flights.
In 1998 Campbell left BAA and formed Security Technical Training Resources (ST2R), which produced, in conjunction with the U.S. FAA at Atlantic City the "Checked Baggage" library of TIP images. In subsequent projects, he has produced further TIP libraries, used by manufacturers of screening systems for both hand-carried and checked baggage.
