Humans have little difficulty recognizing one another. And we know that no two faces are exactly alike. Even identical twins have slightly different faces. Each human face is truly unique, and now we've invented machines that are able to recognize faces for numerous purpos.
Governments, employers and curity and police rvices are increasingly using facial recognition technology. This allows them to quickly confirm an individual's identity. Systems are becoming so advanced that a wanted criminal can instantly be picked out of
a crowd of thousands of people. All that's required is an image in a databa to compare with the image of any number of people in a crowd. Ordinary people, too, are using facial recognition to unlock their phones, their computers and other devices.
Personal facial recognition protection has veral benefits. It is instantaneous, and it relieves us of the need to memorize passwords. However, a device will require a password in the rare event that it doesn't, for whatever reason, recognize the ur's face.
There are numerous concerns about the u of facial recognition. Primarily, the concern is that it threatens privacy. The installation of more and more cameras in public and private places is now part of everyday life. This means people can be obrved and recognized wherever they go. Cameras may make public spaces safer, but keeping law-abiding(守法的) citizens under constant watch is disturbing to many.
In the age of the corona-virus and the widespread wearing of masks, facial recognition systems are having some difficulty. A mask covers many of the facial data points ud by recognition software to confirm a person's identity. In respon, facial recognition system
s are being trained to u less facial data. That could affect how dependable it is as a method of identity detection.
