Panasonic to introduce deep learning facial recognition system at ISC West

Panasonic is introducing its FacePRO deep learning facial recognition system, with a core engine the company says provides the world's highest performance, at ISC West, April 11 to 13. The company's facial recognition engine received a high score in NIST IJB-A testing last year. FacePRO features the capabilities announced by Panasonic as part of its Face Recognition Server Software and Expansion Kit in February. Those capabilities include recognition of faces captured at 45-degree side-angles or 30-degree vertical angles, as well as those partially hidden, such as by sunglasses. They also include "iA" or intelligent auto mode, which adjusts camera settings to optimize for facial recognition.
