June 25, 2018 - Orlando, Florida, United States - Kompel Verdi, Assistant Port Director for Customs and Border Protection in Orlando, explains the use of biometric facial recognition hardware and technology at one of the international departure gates at Orlando International Airport, Orlando, Florida on June 25, 2018. A camera at the gate takes a photograph of the traveler, and matches it to existing passport and other photos of the traveler to verify his or her identity. The new technology eliminates the need to show a passport or boarding pass before boarding the aircraft. While the technology is used on a smaller scale at six other airports, Orlando International Airport went live with the system on May 4, 2018 and is the first airport to fully use biometric facial recognition technology for both arriving and departing international travelers.
