Universal Studios Singapore is now using facial recognition scanners when guests enter the theme park at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS). The move is to enable “more efficient and seamless” entry to the park.
Season and annual ticket holders no longer require physical tickets to gain entry to the site. Day pass visitors still require passes but are able to exit the park and re-enter with facial recognition.
RWS describes facial recognition as being an “essential” part of admission to improve operational safety and security. The theme park operator also said it was fully committed to protecting the personal data and privacy of visitors.
In a statement, RWS commented: “Facial recognition provides contactless verification of tickets and ticket holders, enabling our customers to enjoy our park experience in a more efficient and seamless manner.”
