In the United Arab Emirates, some airports have implemented a new system that uses facial recognition technology to replace traditional boarding passes.
Passengers can simply scan their face at the gate to confirm their identity and board their flight.
This system aims to make the check-in process faster and more efficient, as passengers no longer need to worry about printing out or scanning a physical boarding pass.
To use this system, passengers will need to have their passport and facial recognition data registered in the airport's system. This can be done at the airport or online in advance of their travel.
Once the data is registered, passengers simply need to approach the gate and look into a camera to have their face scanned. If the system recognizes the passenger's face, the gate will open, and they can proceed to board their flight.
While this technology is still being rolled out in the UAE, it is expected to become more widespread in the coming years.
Some travelers may be hesitant to use this system due to concerns about privacy, but the airport has assured passengers that their data is secure and will not be shared with third parties.
Overall, the use of facial recognition technology for boarding passes is seen as a convenient and efficient way to streamline the check-in process at airports.
