What is FacePRO (Panasonic Facial Recognition System) ?
Panasonic FacePRO can identify faces that are difficult to recognize within common video surveillance technology. These situations include reading faces at an angle of up to 45 degrees to the left or right or 30 degrees up or down, with a 90% accuracy rate when detecting faces partially hidden by sunglasses or face masks. FacePRO also has high accuracy reads in matching faces taken from up to ten-year-old passport images.
-Specific faces can be registered in advance to send an alarm when they are detected. The faces of repeat shoplifters and wanted criminals,etc. can be registered in the facial recognition security/surveillance system from data recorded in the past. Information can also be shared between facial recognition systems by importing generic photo data in the JPEG format, etc. Alarms can notify the operator by displaying pop-ups on the screen, emitting warning sounds, or flashing the camera on the map, etc.
-Face images can be used to perform searches. For example, face images of suspicious people detected on the sales floor can be searched to track information on a timeline, including what time they entered the store and which sales floor they passed. Whether suspicious people have shoplifted, etc. after entering the store can also be immediately searched for and checked by the facial recognition security/surveillance system "FacePRO".

Case Study
- Since October 18, 2017, three units of Panasonic's facial recognition gate have been put into operation at Tokyo International Airport's immigration control. Without the need for prior registration of biometric data, the system compares photographic data of the traveler's face in the IC chip embedded in the person's passport with a photo taken at the facial recognition gate to verify the identity.

- Jumbo Ten Brink Food Stores in the Netherlands installed Panasonic security cameras and a facial recognition server as part of their commitment to their ‘zero tolerance shoplifting policy.’

FacePRO Main Features
Face Matching
Registered Face Detection
One of the major advantages of the Facial Recognition Solution is the level of control it gives you from a central point of management.
Thanks to the direct connection between camera and server, you can control and gather insight from up to 20 remote cameras from one server, at the same time. With face matching and visual analysis carried out by the system in real time, your operator can easily access any recorded images related to that face or customer, via the GUI in their monitoring software.

- When it is matched with registered people, alarm of face matching is output in real-time, and display an alarm history in the list.
- Specified screen image can be played back on control monitor with double-clicking on an alarm history.
- Specified screen image can be played back on control monitor with double-clicking on an alarm history.

Unregistered Face Detection (New Feature): Real-time detection of people who are NOT registered.
-The Facial Recognition Server Software(Ver2.0 or later) shall set registered face detection or unregistered face detection* in a facial recognition server.
*Unregistered face detection setting can be used both of Unregistered Face Detection and Registered Face Detection simultaneously
- The Facial Recognition Server Software in unregistered face detection setting shall connect up to 10 Panasonic i-PRO cameras with best shot function to a single server depends on the number of people passing and the retention period of the face image.
- Facial Recognition Server Software in unregistered face detection setting shall be performed detection of unregistered face at three seconds collates with 30,000 registered faces after receiving the face thumbnail to facial recognition server.

Face Search
The facial recognition software runs silently in your system, collecting data on each face that it detects; this data is then stored within an easily accessible database.
A user will then be able to access this database, and will be given the option to select a particular face. With this functionality, the user can choose to set an alarm to be sounded upon future detection of this subject, or simply track a particular person's movements in chronological order throughout all of the cameras in the system.

- Face images that camera detected are stored, and it can be searched later.
- By searching the face DB, you can display the result of each cameras in chronological order and find movement locus of persons.
- Specify camera or date in detected face images and display the result in the list in similarity order.
Face Registration Up to 30,000
People Counting, Age and Gender Statistics

The software also features an
analytics section. In this area, a user is given the ability to analyse
statistics such as people counting, and also allows them to detect age
and gender. The system will then display the relevant information in an
accessible manner.
- Count people of detected face and evaluate their age and gender.
- Display the result on the screen with statistical graph.
- The statistical data can be saved as a CSV file for analytical use.
