As social distancing and contactless interactions become the norm of the new times, the same tech advancement – that is as basic as identifying and verifying a person’s identity using their face –keeps gaining prominence.
You guesses it! Facial Recognition. It is a widely used biometric that identify and authenticate a person using a set of recognizable and verifiable data unique and specific to that person.
The global facial recognition market size was valued at $3.4 billion in 2019 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 14.5% from 2020 to 2027.
