Facial recognition system to be introduced to Dubai’s public transport

Dubai is introducing a facial recognition system on public transport to beef up security, officials said on Sunday, as the emirate prepares to host the global Expo exhibition.

“This technology has proven its effectiveness to identify suspicious and wanted people,” said Obaid al-Hathboor, director of Dubai’s Transport Security Department.

The emirate already operates a biometric system using facial recognition at its international airport.
