CyberLink Corp. announced FaceMe® Security certified integration with Genetec Security Center unified security platform. With the incorporation of FaceMe® Security?s AI facial recognition, Genetec Security Center users can painlessly upgrade existing smart security and access control infrastructure with detection of blocklisted individuals, real-time alerts, employee access control capabilities, and optimized facial search, which can lead to faster video investigations.

Genetec Security Center?s ecosystem was built to manage security policies, monitor events, and run investigations. By combining video surveillance and access control functionalities in one interface, Genetec expanded their customers? ability to have real-time monitoring for the prevention of security breaches.

Using an extensive SDK, it accommodates new data types seamlessly in one integration, making it possible to easily integrate new technologies, like CyberLink?s AI facial recognition engine, FaceMe®. The integration of FaceMe® Security upgrades and empowers existing Genetec security surveillance systems with AI video analytics and facial recognition. By fully leveraging new computing capabilities of IP cameras with AI, optimal synergy between software and hardware can be achieved, helping reduce total cost of ownership.

Users also benefit from leading facial recognition technology, that boasts an impressive accuracy rate of 99.83%, top ranked in 1:1 and 1:N evaluations, as validated by NIST. FaceMe Security makes it simple and efficient to add facial recognition access control. When a person?s face is verified, FaceMe® Security can send real-time push notifications to Genetec Security Center, which then allows or denies entry based on preset permission settings.

Additionally, FaceMe Security?s ability to enhance investigative capabilities is made possible with the FaceMe Locator plug-in, in conjunction with Genetec Security Center?s Visual Tracking function. Instead of the days, weeks, or even months it may take personnel to complete manual investigations, FaceMe Locator dramatically reduces search time, improving safety and security. The FaceMe® Locator plug-in for Genetec enables users to search by face.

Using a facial image of the person of interest and filtering for date and time of the event, FaceMe® Locator will list all events where that person was recorded and provide corresponding video playback. A facial image can be provided in 3 ways: via an uploaded image, a face cropped from a recorded video, or a face cropped from a live video stream. Once a person is found, Genetec?s Visual Tracking feature is utilized to track their path from one camera to the next.
