Face matching technology
Cutting edge face matching that matches selfies and webcam photos to images on IDs using facial recognition software.
How face matching software works
First, scan the customer’s ID. Then, using a webcam or mobile device, take a well-lit image of the customer’s face. Our algorithm can determine whether the ID and the individual are a match, or not.
Customer’s ID photo creates face template
Our face matching technology automatically finds the photo on the ID and creates a multi-point template based on the individual’s facial features.
Customer face is compared to ID photo
Using a front-facing selfie, or a connected webcam, the customer is guided through a short selfie video while the software compares their face to the facial template created from the ID photo.
