With a mission to recognize the faces of the people entering/exiting the premises of the Government Institution in Indonesia, and analyze their attributes in real time, the authorities needed an extremely robust and ‘highly secured’ facial recognition system. Due to heavy footfall at the premises, it was difficult for the staff to manually record information of visitors and verify their identities on daily basis. Sometimes, they faced challenges in verifying them due to changes in appearance or features.
