Aviation in India is on a big upswing in terms of passenger demand. Now, the focus is on to make the entire process of providing access to the plane as easy as possible. This exercise has led some to experiment and bring out very futuristic features. Bengaluru airport has just revealed one such option. Soon you will not have to carry or worry about your boarding pass if you are travelling from Bengaluru airport. Bengaluru International Airport (BIAL) has partnered with Portuguese technology company Vision-Box to implement this smart project.

Vision-Box provided Automated Border Control and electronic identity solutions that use ICAO-compliant standards.

The move is aimed at transforming the passenger experience and creating a future-ready airport.

With the implementation of the biometric technology, Bengaluru Airport will become the first Airport in India to have an end-to-end solution for paperless air travel.

"Your face becomes your boarding pass! BIAL has partnered with @Visionbox to bring you India's first airport to have an end-to-end solution for paperless air travel. The contract was signed in the presence of Portuguese Prime Minister @antoniocostapm," tweeted the BIAL.

The deal was signed in the presence of PM of Portugal Antonio Costa. The paperless biometric self-boarding technology at the airport will get completed by first quarter of 2019. Airlines like Air Asia, SpiceJet and Jet Airways may be among the early users of the technology.

"The goal of the program is to simplify the journey by making it paperless from registration to boarding. Biometric technology will identify passengers by their face as they move across the Airport, avoiding stops and the repeated presentation of boarding passes, passports or other physical identity documents," said the Portuguese firm in a statement.

“BLR Airport will continue to lead from the front in transforming air travel in India by leveraging on technology. We will continue to offer more delightful experiences to all our passengers as they travel through BLR Airport. Vision-Box’s biometric technology combined with its passenger flow platform will enable a seamless journey for our passengers, without obstacles, waiting lines or hassles, from registration to boarding,” said Marar.

Vision-Box CEO Miguel Leitmann said that this will be the first end-to-end face recognition-based walkthrough experience in Asia.

"We’re very proud to team up with Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru. We’re together raising the flag of a historical milestone, marking not only the significant improvement of the experience of those who travel through Bangalore, but also the accomplishment of a seamless digital airport journey. This is the first end-to-end face recognition-based walkthrough experience in Asia and the largest in the world,” said Leitmann.
