The NeoFace KAOATO facial recognition system, designed for use in commercial facilities and public facilities including department stores, supermarkets, schools and hospitals, utilizes the M400's 4K HD camera to perform facial recognition in real time. This enables recognition in certain locations where fixed cameras cannot be installed and allows detection of visitors' entries more effectively.

"We are pleased to be specified as the smart glasses solution within such a comprehensive identification system by a recognized leader in the space," said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix.

"Vuzix M400 smart glasses provide studio quality picture and video capture with auto-focus and image stabilization, making it an ideal device for facial recognition applications. We look forward to working with NES and supporting the successful deployment of its NeoFace KAOATO facial recognition system."
