As a researcher of biometric recognition, I pay special attention to the news of face recognition and so on, and think further about the application of technology.

The Southern Metropolis Daily reported that several sales offices admitted to installing face recognition systems, and more real estate industry insiders said, “similar systems every company has.” And face recognition, is to help housing enterprises to determine what type of home buyers, who is the customer, commission should be paid to whom. The same house, consumers from different channels to buy, the difference in the tens of thousands of yuan to hundreds of thousands of yuan. “Goods than three” is the human nature, but the housing enterprises with face recognition, it is equal to the consumer “a shot set for life.”

See report: Southern Metropolis

The use of face recognition technology, we should still introduce a strict legal system, standardized use of technology, is responsible for science and technology, is responsible for the future.
