RFID tickets at China Olympics 2008 but only for the opening and closing ceremonies
Filed in archive Sports by gautam on July 10, 2008

2008 but it has been reported that RFID Olympic tickets will only be available for the most sought after event of the Olympics - the opening and closing ceremonies. So what will these tickets feature besides RFID? It will feature address, passport and email details besides photograph of the person but tickets released to the press didn't show such thing so its still not sure whether your picture will be on the ticket or not. These tickets will be featuring RFID tag of size 0.3 sq mm and 50 micron in thickness which would not be noticeable to the ticket holder.
6.8 million RFID tickets had to be printed for the whole event but unfortunately plans had to be scaled down since further arrangements could not be made at the last moment. Let's see how the tickets perform at the opening and closing ceremonies. I will keep you updated on this matter.
