Photo ID Management The Person Reader revolutionizes the photo ID process by automatically taking and analyzing photos each time a user appears. It selects the optimal image based on pose, sharpness, and clarity, comparing it to the existing photo ID. If the new image is superior, it updates the record, ensuring a current and accurate photo of every individual entering the facility-without manual intervention or associated costs. This process saves hundreds to thousands of hours annually and enhances security by providing up-to-date images for video comparison and overall safety tasks. PhotoID.jpg
