CCTV Facial Recognition - example of application - Elevators

An environment where the two technologies meet perfectly is that of the elevator. If the camera is high enough to ensure all occupants are in view there may not be enough facial information for recognition software to identify the occupants. However, if Face2Cam is mounted centrally in the ceiling with a Directional Sound Beacon, which when triggered compulsively makes all occupants look up, the facial recognition software does the rest.
