On February 1 day, the police of Taiyuan Railway Station used the face recognition system to "brush the faces" of the inbound passengers. Xinhua News Agency
It only takes 3 seconds to "brush your face and enter the station"
On February 6, the reporter went to the fast entrance hall of Beijing South Railway Station for an interview. A row of "new gadgets" different from ordinary ticket machines attracted the attention of reporters. These ticket machines are equipped with LCD panels and cameras about 30 cm high. Passengers put their ID cards into the scanning area of the gate, and the screen above the gate can recognize the passengers' faces at the same time. The whole process only takes 3 seconds. It is understood that during Spring Festival travel rush this year, the number of "face-brushing" pit stop equipment at major railway stations has increased from 57 1 set to 1 set, which will greatly improve the pit stop efficiency.
Liang, spokesman of Beijing South Railway Station, told the reporter that there are currently four face recognition devices in Beijing South Railway Station, which are located in the express entrance hall on the fifth floor of the station, providing ticket checking service for passengers who drive within 30 minutes.
In the nearly one hour when the reporter interviewed "Brush Face Door" on the spot, there was no mistake in the face recognition gate. It is worth mentioning that when multiple faces appear in the camera field of vision at the same time, the face recognition system can still accurately distinguish who is the passenger, and the passenger's face does not have to occupy a prominent position on the screen, which shows the sensitivity of capture and recognition.
It is understood that the full name of the "face-brushing gate" is the verification gate of the self-service real-name registration system registration system of railway passenger stations. China has completely independent intellectual property rights and the accuracy rate is about 98%. According to the relevant staff, the similarity of "brushing face" when entering the station is above 75%, and the twins can't tell the difference. Those who wear masks and face-lifting will be considered to need to contact the staff.
Order food online and send it to your seat.
The Spring Festival travel rush peak has begun. Do you still remember the cries of "melon seeds, peanuts, tea eggs, sausages, mustard tuber and instant noodles" in the carriages in the past? Nowadays, the "Spring Festival travel rush craze on the tip of the tongue" has undergone tremendous changes.
"During Spring Festival travel rush, the catering service on the train has also been upgraded. Passengers only need to place an order one hour in advance of the arrival time to eat the food outside the station. " Zhu Jiansheng, deputy director of china academy of railway sciences Institute of Electronics, introduced.
During their stay in Spring Festival travel rush, many passengers will choose high-speed trains and bullet trains. It is not uncommon for high-speed trains on popular lines to run at full load. It is inconvenient for passengers to leave their seats and eat in the dining car. When they want to eat, they can only wait for the trolley to pass before buying. This time, the railway cooperated with the professional online ordering platform "Hungry" to launch two kinds of ordering services: "reservation" and "instant reservation". After registering and logging in, passengers can choose the "high-speed rail ordering" option, and then they can order food. Catering services include 15 yuan, 30 yuan, 40 yuan and 60 yuan, with prices ranging from 8 yuan to 65440. After receiving the order, the waiter will send the food to the passenger's seat, which not only provides convenience for the passengers, but also allows the high-speed rail catering department to prepare in advance according to the number of orders ordered by the passengers.
Intelligent navigation and precise positioning in the station
"In the ranking of the national train station area, the current scale of Beijing South Railway Station is still not in the top ten." Liang said that with the development of high-speed railway construction in China, many cities have built huge mobile stations. How to accurately know how to pick up tickets, refund tickets, check tickets, enter the station at strange stations, and find facilities such as toilets and restaurants?
An electronic screen direction finder has been set up in Beijing South Railway Station, which can not only find the departure and arrival trains and their corresponding ticket gates and platforms, but also display the direction and introduce the layout and functions of the building.
The intelligent inquiry machine placed in china academy of railway sciences Monitoring Hall 12306 is directly connected to Qingdao South Railway Station, with more comprehensive functions. In addition to checking the number of trains, it can also provide various services such as nearby attractions and surrounding traffic.
"In the future, there will be a supporting mobile phone APP called Railway Smart Line, which can realize all the functions of the electronic screen on the mobile phone." According to the staff, this application providing station service is currently being piloted in Wuhan and Xi. "After downloading the railway intelligent line APP, passengers can turn on the Bluetooth of their mobile phones and navigate indoors to guide passengers to the designated location. The application also reserves an interface for other applications to add applications such as travel notes. "
In addition, during the rush hour in Spring Festival travel rush this year, Beijing South Railway Station also adopted a number of convenience measures to enhance the passenger waiting experience. One is to realize free charging and add 12 mobile phone charging equipment. Passengers can charge 15 minutes for free by scanning the QR code; The second is to complete the "toilet revolution". In order to meet the peak in Spring Festival travel rush, eight toilets in the waiting hall were upgraded. After the renovation, the number of toilet seats increased from 128 to 175, with an increase of 47, including 43 women's toilets, which effectively eased the queuing problem of women's toilets. The bathroom has also added a children's hand washing table, a maternal and child bathroom, and is equipped with a baby care table and a baby seat. In addition, the station also upgraded the children's entertainment area to facilitate younger children to play.
