We would like to introduce a case study on the implementation of facial recognition in the attendance management system of Nikken Academy, operated by Kenchiku Shiryō Kenkyūsha Co., Ltd. Nikken Academy is a vocational school specializing in the acquisition of qualifications for architects, real estate transaction agents, and various construction management engineers, with 114 directly operated schools nationwide. Before the implementation, there were the following customer challenges: - The hassle of preparing conventional IC cards - The desire to conduct strict identity verification, such as comparing with facial photos to prevent proxy attendance, but lacking sufficient manpower For details on how these challenges were resolved, please refer to the published catalog. This case study was released via PR TIMES by our sales partner, Sanshin Electric Co., Ltd. You can view it through the related links.

As the labor shortage becomes more serious, introducing facial recognition can streamline reception tasks and identity verification processes. Furthermore, by adding "visualization," it becomes possible to reduce manpower through unmanned or remote responses, leading to digital transformation (DX). Are you aware of this? In this seminar, we will introduce case studies and utilization scenarios using facial recognition products. Additionally, for customers who are unsure about what can be done with "facial recognition" or are wondering where to start with their challenges, we will provide tailored proposals. ◆Recommended for: - Those who do not know how facial recognition can be applied in various fields. - Those who have given up on implementing facial recognition due to high hurdles such as network security and management of facial data. - Those who want to improve their operations with a small start. - Those who are unsure about where to begin with their challenges.

The "Face Recognition Spoofing Prevention Solution" is a face recognition system that does not require a database or network. It unlocks only when the facial features (i.e., QR code or IC card) and the facial image from the camera belong to the same person, preventing use by anyone other than the cardholder (thus preventing spoofing). By achieving two-factor authentication through ownership verification (QR code or IC card) and biometric authentication (face recognition), it not only enhances security for factory entry and exit but also contributes to fraud prevention and efficiency. 【Features】 ■ Since facial information is stored on a medium possessed by the user, management on the system side is unnecessary. ■ Multi-factor authentication is achieved through ownership verification (QR code or IC card) and biometric authentication. ■ Since there is no need to build a database or network, integration with business systems is easy. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *“QR code” is a registered trademark of Denso Wave Incorporated.
