ABU DHABI THEME PARKS GET FACIAL RECOGNITION

Abu Dhabi theme parks will soon use facial recognition technology for arriving visitors. The technology will allow visitors to Ferrari World, Yas Waterworld and Warner Bros World to enter the parks quickly and pay their tickets by having their faces scanned. It will also be available in some restaurants and retail shops across the parks. Businesses particularly those that require physical interaction with customers, have been trying to circumvent the lasting impact of COVID-19 by introducing contactless technology in their operations – one of which is facial recognition. Ferrari World, Yas Waterworld and Warner Bros World, located in the capital’s Yas Island, will be the first in the region to adopt FacePass technology.
