What is Face Recognition?
Face recognition is a biometric technology that identifies or establishes a person’s identity using facial features. It relies on computer vision and machine learning to identify distinct facial characteristics, including the distance between the eyes, the shape of the jawline, and the nasal shape. This data is matched against stored images to identify people. This is commonly used on smartphones to unlock them and is also used in monitoring systems, airport security, and for unique shopping experiences.
Facial recognition technology is used, for example, to unlock your phone or to tag people in a photo on Facebook.
