Benefits:

1. Security

Are you still worried about your identity information being stolen? The advent of face recognition technology has completely solved this problem. Even if others get our personal information, they will not be able to operate anything related to their own information. If the face recognition does not pass, it will not be possible to operate. In this way, there is a higher level of protection for personal information, and people can rest assured to use the convenience brought by facial recognition.

2. Fast

Facial recognition efficiency is 3-5 times higher than manual work. Now many supermarkets have opened facial recognition payment. As long as the products are scanned independently, they can be paid through Alipay. Facial recognition enables successful payment, which not only saves human resources but also greatly improves work efficiency. Although the manual payment window in supermarkets is currently larger than the face recognition window, face recognition will definitely be fully implemented in the future.
