Purpose and structure of the Guide

The Administrator’s Guide is a reference and information handbook designed for system administrators, installation and configuration technicians and users with administrator rights to products based on Face PSIM software.

2. registers facial biometric parameters;
3. compares a captured face displayed in a video frame with reference images stored in the "<Face PSIM installation directory\Bmp\person>” folder based on biometric parameters;
4. maintains a reference face database used for face recognition;
5. creates a photo- and video archive;
6. searches for faces in the database using a photo.
7. identifies gender and age of recognized faces;
8. counts unique visitors by recognized faces (including reports creation in Web Report System PSIM).
