Last week, the Russian high tech company Vocord introduced a new 3D face recognition and identification system that can be used in any public place.
The system, which Vocord has presented as a technological breakthrough, takes pictures from different angles to build a 3D model of the face. This ‘non-cooperative’ approach does not require the person to position his or her face in the camera’s vision range for facial detailing. Indeed, the subject does not even need to know that he or she is being filmed.
The technology also solves a number of issues in traditional biometrical identification, from makeup to unstable lighting conditions, Vocord claims.
A resident company at Skolkovo, the state-sponsored innovation hub under completion near Moscow, Vocord offers more than a hundred high-tech products and systems. These include monitor systems for technical communication channels and digital audio processing as well as video surveillance and integrated security systems.
