Intel introduced on Wednesday its new on-device solution RealSense, a facial recognition tool that provides secure and accurate facial authentication. The ID can work on edge devices such as smart locks, access control, point-of-sale, and ATMs. The software, which combines active depth with a specialized neural network, was developed in Israel to be deployed worldwide.
As technology develops, traditional authentication methods are becoming easier to hack and vulnerable to ID theft or security breaches. RealSense has unique built-in anti-spoofing technology that can protect against those trying to authenticate devices using photographs, videos, or masks. According to the Israeli team, the technology provides a one-in-1-million false acceptance rate.
