Panasonic Corp. said Feb. 26 that it will launch a face recognition server software that will be capable of identifying faces, which are difficult to recognize with conventional technologies.
The software, which uses deep learning technology, will be launched in July 2018 outside Japan and in August 2018 in Japan.
Panasonic said the software can identify faces even at an angle and those partially hidden by sunglasses. The company also plans to develop by the end of 2018 a function that will enable the software to recognize faces covered with a surgical mask.
