Samsung Techwin cameras combine with FaceFirst biometric software to support facial recognition systems
Samsung Techwin megapixelvideo surveillance cameras are deployed with the FaceFirst facial recognition software as a complete biometric solution for surveillance applications. Facial images captured by the surveillance cameras are automatically matched with watch list photos and when a person of interest is identified, alerts are sent directly to pre-provisioned computers, cell phones (as e-mail, SMS or MMS messaging), or cash registers. The platform is suitable for recognition especially in situations where individuals pass through wtithout stopping, such as in transportation environments or entertainment venues. The military-grade biometric system features cloud-ready software and can be scaled as well as custom configured to specific requirements. User-selected facial databases are employed by the system to match client records at the rate of 1 million comparisons per second.
