Face capture is the process of taking snapshots of human faces in the detection area. It is a perfect complement to your surveillance system and an efficient solution to help you improve customer service and protect your assets by identifying important customers or potential perpetrators.
Popular Applications

Whether at home or in other public places, the cameras will protect your personal and property safety by face capture. You can set a “blacklist” and when the camera captures a face in the list that appears in a defined area, there will be an alert.
- 2. Retail analyses
Use face capture to conduct comprehensive analysis of in-store customers.
Analyze how many people enter the retail store, time spent in-store, gender and age split, consumption amount and much more. Create customer profiles, identify VIP customers, provide customized services in time to enhance customer shopping experience; explore potential customers, and increase conversion rates.
- 3. Police enforcement
The benefits of face capture for police enforcement are evident: detection and prevention of crime.
This function can be used to identify a person in large databases.
Monitor large groups of people and rapidly identify potential security threats or suspects at airports, public gatherings or sports arenas using real-time face detection and blacklist check.
