In Dubai, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) showcased several projects using facial recognition in transit at Gitex Global.
The RTA presented a new system that allows commuters to pay for fares on the Dubai Metro, tram, buses, and taxis by passing through a biometric gate. Users must first register their faces and a payment method. The gate sysytem is then able to verify their faces with a 3d camera and deduct the fare from their accounts
