2. New voluntary facial recognition entry test now underway 

In an effort to make the theme park entry process more "touchless" Walt Disney World is now testing a facial recognition admission system at the entry to Magic Kingdom that will last through April 23, 2021. Disney has said that the technology they are testing 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.
