Facial Recognition Technology Could Make Boarding a Plane Much Easier

JetBlue is looking into a way to limit those frustrations, and is testing the use of facial recognition technology to make the boarding process paperless and eliminate the need for devices. All you would need to do is step up and look into a camera. A screen above the camera will notify passengers when they are clear to board. The process would be completely automated, meaning JetBlue staff wouldn't need to be involved at all. The company says staff would instead be able to deal with customer service and help individuals at the gate.
