Asda trialling cameras that can tell your age when buying alcohol in stores

You soon won't have to wait for a supermarket assistant to check your age at self-checkouts in the UK.

Supermarket giant Asda is trialling a new self-identification service that uses special cameras to verify your age when purchasing alcoholic products.

As a result, shoppers won’t need to wait for a member of staff to come over and manually check their ID when using a self-service till.
