Patent US 11,625,665

A contactless system and method for mass attendee event venue entry and item delivery system for facilitating expeditious and controlled entry of an influx of people to the event without overwhelming event venue employees or resources. A digital entry image of a person is taken by a camera (106) as the person moves through a photo zone (124). The digital entry image is compared using facial recognition technology with a stored profile image of the person to identify the person and confirm authorized entry into the event without the need for the person to present a ticket or pass for the particular event. Procurement and delivery of any item pre-selected by the person directly to the person's allocated seating may be confirmed using the same facial recognition image comparison used to confirm authorized entry of the person into the event venue.
