Welcome to a new era, the era of facial biometrics. The launch of the iPhone X, a smartphone with Face ID facial recognition functionality, shows that this technology is now fully mature. This is thanks to the arrival of miniaturised 3D sensors and a huge amount of computing power, combined with high-performance learning algorithms such as Deep Learning. What is facial recognition ?
