Abstract: With the comprehensive promotion of railway electronic tickets, it is urgent to build an efficient and stable multimedia automatic ticket checking system. This paper designed and implemented a railway multi-media automatic ticket checking system based on big data cluster processing, Near Field Communication (NFC) and two-dimensional code technology. The system supported ID card, two-dimensional code (railway e-card, Alipay), IC card (China Railway Yintong card), face recognition and other ticket checking methods. The paper elaborated on the overall architecture and network architecture of the system, optimized the ticket checking business process, implemented online real-time ticket checking and data synchronization, and designed three fault emergency modes to ensure the high availability of the system. The experimental results show that the ticket checking speed of a single gate of the system can reach 20 people/min, and it can operate stably for 7 × 24 hours, significantly improves the efficiency of passenger management and passenger travel experience.
