At the World Defence Show in Riyadh, the Saudi Ministry of Interior showcased its innovative contactless e-gate service that utilises advanced sensing technologies integrated with AI to scan and identify travellers' biometric features before they pass through the gate.
This cutting-edge service, available at NEOM Bay Airport, enables travellers to simply swipe their hand across a designated device, eliminating the need for physical contact.
It marks a key milestone for the General Directorate of Passports, advancing digital transformation in border control, enhancing efficiency, simplifying processes, and driving data-driven solutions.
