Until today, many people still wear face masks because they believe it is the best way to protect their health. This makes it difficult for many facial recognition systems to identify people. In the future, Apple's smart camera for homes is expected to be able to identify people's identities even when their faces are covered.
Regardless of whether they are wearing a veil or wearing a face mask, this Apple camera system can identify people in a house and not record them, but only record people that the camera does not recognize. This camera is also said to include Apple Intelligence. This artificial intelligence system is said to be able to use stored image or video data that may have previously identified individual characteristics.
With this, the AI system on this camera can recognize individuals even if their faces are not visible, either because they are blocked/covered or because of low image quality. Among the characteristics that will be identified is the shape of the body. Interestingly, this Apple smart camera can also identify a person's movement style. This camera is expected to be launched in 2026 to match the smart screen expected to arrive in 2025.
