NEC have been delivering robust biometric solutions for over 30 years and its unrivalled reputation has ensured that we have become one of the most renowned biometrics specialists in the world.The NeoFace Face Recognition technology was ranked number one in the latest Biometric Grand Challenge's (MBGC) "Still Face" Challenge Problem in December 2009, and in the new benchmark test MBE 2010, both carried out by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), commissioned by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. This provides another demonstration of NEC's prominence in the world of face recognition.
NeoFace consists of a software development kit (SDK) with a runtime license and the following capabilities:
- Detection of faces in images
- Matching (verification) of detected faces
Advantages
- Ease
Faces are automatically verified without user input (such as touching the screen) - Accuracy
NeoFace received 1st prize at the worldwide accuracy evaluation championship*
* NIST-Proven Accuracy - Natural
NeoFace verifies people by their face just as humans do - Reuse
Logged images are useful for later visual verification
