Top 5 Countries to Adopt Facial Recognition Technology
Consumers are ending up increasingly responsive about sharing their data, as data integrity and security has turned into a developing concern. In any case, with the advent of nations teching up with facial recognition, even explorers need to truly begin thinking about what sort of data they could be reluctantly offering to nations, individuals and places.

Never again consigned to sci-fi films and books, the technology is being used in various vertical markets, from helping banks recognize clients to empowering governments to look out for criminals. Let's look at some of the top countries adopting facial recognition technology.
CHINA
China drives the world in deploying facial recognition. It has 170 million video surveillance cameras, with another 400 million expected in the coming three years. A large number of these cameras have artificial intelligence (AI) and facial recognition. In 2017, China petitioned for in excess of 900 facial recognition patents, as compared to 96 patents documented in the U.S.
China later declared that more than 60 of its airports had been furnished with facial recognition innovation. Cameras at 557 security channels catch pictures of faces and scan their international passports or ID cards to confirm their personality. Also, at Beijing Normal University, they have introduced a facial recognition security framework in the campus quarters, identifying students before permitting them to go. It seems very dreadful, Big Brother-style mass surveillance, yet it has its qualities.

SINGAPORE
Singapore declared as of late that it is wanting to turn on facial recognition innovation for more than 100,000 lampposts to enable authorities to select and perceive faces in crowds across the city-state.
Named "Lamppost-as-a-Platform," the venture is a part of Singapore's "Smart Nation" plan to utilize cutting edge innovation to enhance individuals' lives. The administration said the framework would enable it to 'perform crowd analytics and support anti-terror operations.
One of the organizations' bidding is Yitu Technology, a Chinese firm that additionally provided facial recognition cameras to the police compel in Malaysia. Singapore is likewise taking a look at utilizing facial recognition to discover older individuals who are lost in the city, something which is as of now dynamic in China.
