The development status of face recognition technology market

There are such a group of people who have been carrying out various efforts to break through one technical difficulty. Their purpose is to "take people by appearance."

It’s not a joke, it’s not a fantasy. Because the work of these people is the development and application of "face recognition technology".

From "one finger to Zen" to "face view"

Autumn is coming to the winter, and in the cold wind, a pair of thick gloves makes us feel the temperature. I believe that no one wants to take it off at a few degrees. However, due to the application of the fingerprint punch card machine, we have to practice the "one finger meditation" effort every day at the company door. Imagine that if there is a product that allows us gentlemen to "do not move or do it", they can complete the identification work, which will be twice the result with half the effort. The development and application of face recognition technology just meets our needs.

In recent years, due to the needs of anti-terrorism, homeland security and social security, countries around the world have increased their investment in the security field. Identity is a core issue of security. In this environment, biometrics has ushered in a period of rapid development. Face recognition technology has sprung up in such an environment, like the sun rising at seven or eight o'clock. As of 2007, the market share of face recognition has been negligible from the original, rapidly rising to 12.9%, the market share is only less than fingerprint recognition, and the proportion is still increasing, completely breaking the "fingerprint" in the international biometric market. .

Looking at the domestic face recognition technology market, it has experienced rapid development since 2007, and the pace of development is getting faster and faster. Since the scientific and social circles and all aspects of society recognize the importance of face recognition technology, national policies have greatly supported the research on face recognition technology, which has made great progress in China's face recognition technology. Moreover, in addition to traditional attendance, access control and other applications, the emergence of a variety of new application requirements has greatly promoted the development of this market. For example, identity recognition in a video surveillance environment is becoming an urgent need to identify a particular person's identity at a greater distance in a more complex scenario, which is clearly not acceptable for fingerprint identification methods. . Face recognition is an excellent choice. In addition, the market size of the face recognition system is largely related to the size of the population. China has a population of 1.3 billion, which essentially determines that China is the world's largest biometric market.

From "one finger to Zen" to "face-to-face", it seems to be only a matter of time.

Pick up the technical cover

"Fingerprint recognition should be the most widely used and most popular biometric technology, and it is also the same in the world. Face recognition technology is currently a small share of the world, but in China, because of the high price of imported products, The share is very small, basically a blank, many face recognition products have not been seen." Han Wang Technology Co., Ltd. face product line manager Shi Jian said, "However, face recognition system compared fingerprint recognition In terms of it, there is a great advantage. Therefore, we think it is time to pick up the face recognition technology."

"Compared with the previous fingerprint recognition system, the face recognition system has many innate advantages. Due to factors such as wet and dry fingers, finger suede, and a few people's fingerprints are too fine, the proportion of people who do not apply fingerprint recognition is generally around 5%. Moreover, fingerprint recognition requires a special fingerprint collection head, and many people have long-term public finger contact, and there is a danger of cross-contagious diseases. Therefore, the use of the fingerprint recognition system is limited by many conditions. In contrast, the face recognition system has to First of all, face recognition is the most natural, non-contact identification, non-invasive and safe, both indoors and outdoors; secondly, face recognition is more intuitive, safer and faster. For example, according to the fingerprint, after the fingerprint is pressed, you can't visually recognize who the fingerprint is, but the face recognition can recognize the person at a glance. This saves the identification photo record, which is very convenient for post-mortem verification and even use as an overnight photo. "Shi Jian introduced, "The recognition speed of the face recognition system is quite fast, and the face of the PC platform developed by Hanwang himself." The recognition system can recognize 15 times in a second, and the recognition process is automatically completed at the moment of the user's inadvertence, which is very fast and convenient; and the 'face recognition system' has a storage function, as long as the face of some potentially dangerous 'key people' Feature input storage system, 'key person' If you are arbitrarily arbitrarily, the identification system will automatically send out an alarm and 'alarm' to other security centers. In addition, some important areas such as the control center only allow staff of specific identities to enter and exit, this time the face Everyone whose file information is not stored by the system will be rejected.” At present, the smooth recognition rate of Hanwang face recognition reaches 95%, which is far higher than that of domestic counterparts.

It is understood that as early as 2003, Hanwang Technology aimed at the most advanced technology of biometric identification - face recognition, and carried out in-depth research on algorithms. Now Hanwang already has “Dual Sensor” with completely independent intellectual property rights? Face recognition algorithm. It adopts a dedicated dual camera and belongs to the quasi-three-dimensional face recognition technology. The recognition performance greatly exceeds the two-dimensional face recognition. The algorithm complexity is much lower than the three-dimensional face recognition. The technical advantage is obvious, and it is at the international leading level. The recognition performance is far more than the current one. A general single-camera face recognition algorithm on the market. In 2006, Hanwang Technology took the lead in successfully implementing the embedded face recognition algorithm on the high-speed DSP platform, thereby extending the application field of face recognition from PC platform to a wider embedded platform, thus serving the scale commercialization of face recognition technology. Laid a solid foundation. In October 2008, with the support of the face-specific funds of the Electronic Information Industry Development Fund of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Hanwang Technology fully utilized its technology and market leader in the field of pattern recognition, combined with the development trend of the face recognition market at home and abroad. Launched the world's first embedded dual-camera face recognition machine, the product is currently available on the F710.

"Small" products opened the curtain

"Don't look at this thing small, we think it can open the face of the 'access control' era." For the company's latest face-to-face F710, Hanwang Technology President Liu Yingjian is full of confidence. "We are always used to calling people who are familiar with a certain field "xx". So, we named the world's first embedded dual-camera face recognition machine as 'face-to-face'. It is no exaggeration to say No matter which country you are in, as long as you have a face, it will know you and remember you forever."

This is indeed the case. As a product that won the "Innovative Product Award" at the 2008 AMB, the face-to-face F710 has many advantages. Thanks to the dedicated dual camera and Hanvon's latest "DualSensor? V2.0" face recognition algorithm, the face recognition F710 has a faster recognition speed, higher accuracy and is not affected by ambient light. There is no need to wait in line for punching during the rush hour, which is not a dream in the face recognition era. You don't need to swipe your card, you don't press it, you can see the result at a glance, and the speed is naturally accelerated. Moreover, the color screen display, automatic face capture and Chinese voice registration after successful recognition all reflect more humanization. In addition, high security, health and good compatibility have made the face of the F710 listed on the market, and it has received extensive attention.

Statistics from the international biometrics authority IBG show that the growth trend of global face recognition has been very strong in recent years, with an average annual growth rate of more than 80%, which greatly exceeds the annual average growth rate of 30% in the global biometrics market. Face recognition, as a market hotspot of global biometrics, has attracted more and more people's attention and demonstrated its beautiful application prospects. As a domestic company to catch up, break through the foreign technology monopoly, and launch a representative of stable performance and affordable products, Hanwang Technology's successful research and development of F710 will undoubtedly inject a stimulant into the industrialization of large-scale commercial face recognition.

"A good news, our 'Face' will go out of the country and go to the US to participate in the CES exhibition. Our products are created in China, and our market is global. Hanwang's 'Face' I am confident to open up the international market." Liu Yingjian's words are hard to hide. As a national brand in the field of identification, Hanwang’s goal is of course not only to launch a face-to-face in China, but also to make Chinese brands stand out in the international market.
