Frequent flyers will be familiar with the growing use of e-passport gates at airports around the world – but 2018 could be the year that facial recognition technology stops becoming a novelty and enters the mainstream.
Facial recognition can be a game-changer for marketers, but until now the number of sectors and brands making full use of it has remained surprisingly low.

With iPhone X incorporating facial recognition as a standout feature for Apple Pay, and the UK on the verge of becoming a cashless society, the stage is set for a surge in the number of brands using this technology to create a more personalized and seamless customer experience.
