SAN FERNANDO, Calif. — Precision Dynamics Corporation will provide the Jacksonville Suns and the Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville with radio frequency identification solutions for age verification and cashless payment during the Times-Union SuperFest, an official Super Bowl XXXIX event, taking place February 3-6 in Jacksonville, Fla.
According to a news release, the Jacksonville Suns will implement PDC's AgeBand Electronic Age/ID Verification System along with Smart AgeBand Wristbands to prevent underage drinking at the event. PDC's cashless payment solution consisting of Smart Kiosks, Smart Band RFID Wristbands and Smart Readers, will be used to provide fast and convenient cashless point-of-sales during the event.
PDC's wireless cashless payment solution helps increase throughput at concession stands and reduce long lines. Smart Kiosk is a free-standing booth with a touchscreen that allows patrons to load money using cash, credit or debit cards onto Smart Band RFID Wristbands. Smart Readers replace expensive stand-alone POS systems and provide convenient wireless cashless POS.
AgeBand utilizes special software to verify the authenticity of state issued drivers licenses or ID credentials. The system scans the magnetic stripe and 2-dimensional bar code of the credential and prints patron's pertinent information on a non-transferable Smart AgeBand Wristband containing an RFID chip.
"We use AgeBand at the stadium during baseball season and it has been a great enhancement to our operations," said Peter Bragan, Jr., general manager for the Jacksonville Suns. "During SuperFest we hope to discourage underage drinking and encourage a safe Super Bowl party using AgeBand. We also look forward to implementing a new cashless RFID system during the event to improve patrons' overall experience and streamline operations."
