European Union stickily ban facial recognition for five years and considered that it is unsafe to secure data privacy concerns. The ban is considered to be temporary although the EU completely showed no interest to introduce this unsafe technology to the public.
The reason for the temporary ban is to inspect and study the technology and figure out the best possible results to conclude the final decision.
In Boston airport also test some system to check the results but unfortunately, the results were very disappointing and 65 percent accuracy rate was recorded so that there are a lot of cases happen by using it in a major organization
Background process of Facial recognition
Basically, facial recognition is the process to give identification about the person by capturing facial details. it uses a database of images and video by observing the facial signature like distance from forehead to chin to identify This can be done by using biometric artificial intelligence to analyze facial textures and shape.
Mostly this technology used in the security system rather than using other biometric devices such as fingerprint, eye recognition system, however, in recent years there is a lot of problems that evolved about the accuracy of facial recognition.
Similarly, there are different techniques to recognize facial by different expressions like smiling, blinking, beard growth but still, lack of accuracy occurs in this technology. The market of this device is growing steadily in the past and in the future industry would like to grow this technology u 3.5 billion dollars in 2020
Weaknesses
According to the survey of Globe News if slight change the angle of the camera can cause an error or maybe a person who cut their hairs or beard like these types of activities changes the features of face so it may represent severe flaws in this technology.
There are a plethora of organizations force and insist google, amazon to not sell this unsafe technology to government organization so many complaints uprises and lawmakers decided to ban this Technology in all city departments from using recognition technology.
in addition, it would be very hard for this technology to detect low-resolution face but there is many conflicts escalate by American facial recognition has claimed that only five percent error rate had shown when used this technology and in the future, it would be drop to zero by further modification.
Moreover, integration is so poor it took more time to respond if a high amount of data is saved in this device. This is one of the major reasons this device has very low accuracy
Process how it works
This technology represents mathematical algorithms to process and identify the facial expressions .it involves collecting samples of face behavior and physical appearance than after that data is extracted and created a template and save that data into a template.
so, if any facial want to recognize it than this device start seeking and try to compare data related to target one in final step it matches the data if the samples match otherwise it saves it as a new data file
