More specifically, the HIA has a desire to completely upgrade the passengers experience in airport by reducing the lengthy verification process. We really hope this changes everything and make passenger flow becomes like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2017-01-25\/go-from-airport-curb-to-cabin-in-a-flash-of-your-eye\">CLEAR program in USA<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suhail Kadri, the Vice President Information Technology, Hamad International Airport said that the implementation of biometric technology will help to enable us to become a fully digital airport. Today, passengers departing from HIA have to show their boarding pass and\/or passport at multiple touch-points but the use of facial recognition technology will remove the need to present physical documents. &#8211; <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If HIA select wrong vendor or implement wrong process, this project will be doomed like many other before them &#8211; Please don\u2019t mess up.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kadri added that, \u201cOnce you\u2019ve registered the first contact at the airport, from then onwards all you need to do is show your face at check-in, self-bag drop, pre-border control, immigration and ultimately at the boarding gate\u201d. &#8211; <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sounds like our RightPatient, the <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightpatient.com\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">biometric patient ID<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> initiative.
