Benefits of facial recognition

In addition to unlocking your smartphone and clocking in at work, facial recognition has other benefits.

Increased security

At the government level, facial recognition can help identify terrorists or other criminals. At the individual level, facial recognition can be used as a security tool to lock personal devices and personal surveillance cameras.

Faster processing

The process of recognizing a face takes only one second, which benefits companies that use facial recognition. In an age of cyber attacks and advanced hacking tools, companies need technology that is secure and fast.

Reduces crime

Facial recognition makes it easier to track burglars, thieves and intruders. The sole knowledge that facial recognition systems exist can act as a deterrent, especially for minor crimes.

Greater Convenience

As this technology becomes more widespread, customers will be able to pay in stores using their face rather than pulling out a credit card or cash. This can save time in the checkout line. Because facial recognition does not require contact, this technology is useful in a post-COVID world.


Disadvantages of facial recognition

While some people don't mind being photographed in public, the technology can inspire strong reactions from others. Some disadvantages or problems include

Range of errors

Facial recognition data is not error-free, which can lead to people being implicated for crimes they did not commit. For example, small changes in camera angle or changes in appearance (such as a new haircut) can lead to errors.

Surveillance

Some are concerned that the use of facial recognition with ubiquitous cameras, artificial intelligence and data analytics creates the potential for mass surveillance, which could limit personal freedoms.

Invasion of privacy

Ethical and privacy issues are among the most controversial. Governments are known to store photos of some citizens without their consent.
