The most commonly used technologies deployed by sporting venues include video surveillance, walkthrough metal detectors, electronic tickets, stationary bollards, explosive-detection canines and venue signage, according to a new study released by the National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS4).
If additional funding was available, facial recognition systems, license plate readers, RFID staff identification, retractable bollards, automated barrier systems and x-ray scanner capabilities are among the most sought-after resources, according to the Venue Security Director Survey.
