ORLANDO, Fla. – Walt Disney World is now testing a new facial recognition technology at its Magic Kingdom theme park.
The new technology captures an image of a guest’s face and converts it into a unique number, which is then associated with the form of admission being used for park entry.
Disney said on its website that the test is completely optional, and limited, as guests with reservations make their way through the turnstiles at the park.
