well,for those that do not know TICKET MASTER that ensures the sales of tickets for concerts,movies,sports games to the public merging with live bands and the sorts for the entertainment of their fans
Recently,tick master created an idea to crop time wasting of their fans,although this might not be implemented now but in the no distant future, you might be able to walk into a concert venue without waiting in line for your ticket to be scanned — because instead, the venue will automatically scan and identify your face.
For now, there don’t appear to be actual plans to put this
tech into place. It’s not even clear that Blink’s tech works as effectively as
the company describes. But it’s clearly something Ticketmaster is thinking
about.,
Recently,tick master created an idea to crop time wasting of their fans,although this might not be implemented now but in the no distant future, you might be able to walk into a concert venue without waiting in line for your ticket to be scanned — because instead, the venue will automatically scan and identify your face.
That’s the experience that Live Nation and Ticketmaster
suggested they’ll try to develop last week, when announcing an investment in
Blink Identity. Blink is a brand new company that claims to be able to identify
people walking by in “half a second,” even if they aren’t looking straight at a
camera.
DO YOU WANT TICKETMASTER TO HAVE YOUR FACE ON FILE?
“We will continue investing in new technologies to further
differentiate Ticketmaster from others in the ticketing business,” Live Nation
wrote in a note to investors last week. It added that Blink’s technology could
let you “ associate your digital ticket with your image, then just walk into
the show.”
While that sounds convenient, it also means that concert
venues would have to be outfitted with surveillance equipment. And on perhaps
an even worse note, it means that Ticketmaster — a company everyone hates more
with each new convenience fee tacked onto their bill — would need to develop a
database of all its concertgoers’ faces, which a lot of people aren’t going to
be comfortable with.
