Biometric facial recognition is a type of technology that uses a person’s facial features to verify or identify their identity. It’s a form of biometric authentication, which means it relies on unique biological traits (like fingerprints, iris patterns, or, in this case, your face).

How Facial Recognition Works:

Image Capture: A camera captures an image or video of a person’s face.

Feature Mapping: The system maps key facial features (e.g., distance between eyes, shape of the cheekbones, contour of the lips, etc.).

Data Conversion: These facial features are converted into a mathematical model—a "facial signature."

Comparison: The facial signature is compared to stored data (in a database or ID document) to confirm the person’s identity.

Decision: If the facial data matches, the system verifies or identifies the person.
