Face-recognition ID checks and boarding at Wuhan Tianhe

On 19 June 2018 Wuhan Tianhe brought face-recognition assisted ID checks into service across more than 130 security terminals and over 90 boarding gates, SASAC said on 25 June 2018. On 22 June it caught its first case of a borrowed ID, at 15.67% similarity.

In October 2019 the airport showed 5G plus face recognition one-face pass and AR-glasses identification, the Wuhan DRC said on 18 October 2019.

By March 2021, 14 gates offered face boarding, used by over 80% of passengers, and security lanes took 5 to 10 seconds per person, CNHubei reported on 11 March 2021.

A reported implementation is not automatically an independently measured AI result.

Editorial assessment

The published records establish the scope of reported activity, subject to the evidence attached to each one. An AI-specific operating result must be demonstrated rather than inferred from a scanner, camera, biometric gate or supplier announcement.

Live data from the Aerostack register. Status reflects published evidence only. See Our approach for how records are graded.

Aerostack tracks AI deployments across airports and airlines, with the published evidence behind each record. Photography is real aviation imagery. Record thumbnails may show the named airport or airline; other photographs do not.
