Facial recognition, as a technology for public safety and business problems solution, is used in 98 countries globally; in 3 countries, it is prohibited; in 12 countries, it is approved by the state but is not used. There is no information about the use of such programs in 68 countries, but it is known that they are planning to introduce them shortly.
I’ll tell you about the full range of functions available in 2021 in facial recognition programs.
Experts in artificial intelligence technologies, particularly the international company Faceter, have learned to recognize faces with an accuracy of 99.8%. The University of Washington has confirmed the effectiveness of the computer vision algorithms used.
The company “Surfshark”, which develops services to protect online privacy, has drawn up an up-to-date map of this technology’s application in all (194) countries of the world. The study was based on government policy.
The world practice of application is as follows:
A modern video surveillance system is generally available, fits in the palm of your hand, is inexpensive, but at the same time has a developed intellect. Online identification and various video analytics are the main trends in the video surveillance market in 2021.
The immediate identification of human faces and emotions, combined with an impressive level of detail, is used to ensure public safety, increase situational awareness, and optimize business processes.
The function of maintaining customer lists allows you to create blocking and/or permitting VIP lists. In particular, this option is in demand in public institutions and institutions that restrict strangers’ entry. For example, we can talk about maintaining lists in schools and kindergartens, restaurants, hotels, and warehouses.
Additional analytical options connect to network video equipment and are used to collect statistics.
For example, you can report the number of new, unique and repeat visitors with detailed segmentation by specified parameters (gender, age).
You can also get reliable information about employees’ movement using data for different periods (day, week, month, year).
Video cameras keep track of the time of any activity, including:

Maintaining public safety in crowded areas requires user registration. Information is often collected using video cameras or mobile devices and entered into a single database.
Lists of people maintenance with customizable notifications are the best solution for business.
For example, suppose a person from the “blacklist” of unwanted clients comes into the field of view of a video camera. In that case, the system sends an alarm signal to the operator’s console, mobile phone or e-mail (according to the previously selected option).
Alerts for “white” or VIP lists are triggered in the same way. Thus, the staff can quickly react to a particular visitor.
It is also possible to set an intense alarm in case of detection of aggression and suspicious actions.
In total, intelligent video surveillance can replace the staff of security guards and managers. Now it is possible to provide a continuous effect of the head’s presence in the office, production, and trade. All types of work can be monitored using an ordinary smartphone. The facial recognition function has become an indispensable business assistant in 2021. According to experts, the impact of intelligent video surveillance will expand by an average of 10% per year shortly.
As progressive technology, the facial recognition system is of interest to the state, private business, and individual users. Today, you can choose the set of intelligent video analytics features that match your priority goals. To purchase software, contact a trusted security store.
