Fujitsu ID technology recognises masked shoppers Fujitsu says it has developed vein and facial recognition ID authentication technology for shoppers which has a 99% success rate even when people are masked. Users wearing masks present challenges to conventional facial recognition filtering technologies however, with Fujitsu’s technology, differences in the appearance depending on the presence or absence of the mask can be absorbed by generating a composite image that combines the mask with the face image, achieving filtering accuracy of greater than 99%, or equivalent to that without a mask. The technology generates an image of the user’s face without a mask while taking into account the extraction of features of the entire face, like its shape and contours.
