SINGAPORE PLANS TO LAUNCH COUNTRY-WIDE FACIAL RECOGNITION SYSTEM THAT WILL
REPLACE PHOTO IDS BY 2022

 * Photo kiosks will be installed in government agencies across Singapore
 * Starting in June, people will present their face instead of a photo ID when
   checking in for government services at any of these agencies
 * The government hopes that by 2022, facial recognition will replace photo IDs

The government of Singapore is preparing to transition to a facial recognition
program it hopes will eliminate the need for ID cards by 2022.

Beginning in June, kiosks fitted with cameras will be installed at a limited
number of government agencies, and instead of presenting an ID card citizens
will be able to check in for services with just their faces.

The facial recognition system is a major expansion of the Smart Nation
Initiative, which began in 2014 under Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and through
which the state has built up a biometric database on more than four million
Singaporeans over the age of 15.

Starting in June, a selection of government agencies in Singapore will have
photo kiosks installed with facial recognition software, which will be used to
check people in for services rather than photo ID cards

The facial recognition kiosks will crosscheck each new scan against this
database to verify a person's identity, according to a report in The Strait
Times.

The kiosks will also work in tandem with SingPass Mobile, an app launched in
2018 that allows people to register their own finger print and face data with
the government’s biometric database.

Last year, the Singapore Tourism Board launched a limited test program of the
facial recognition program in select hotels, allowing users to check in just by
looking into a camera for a few seconds. 

Though the connection between SingPass and the government biometric database, it
hopes facial recognition will become the default identification at commercial
and retail establishments. 

The government hopes to transition to using the facial recognition software to
process all payments to and from citizens the by 2023.

Citizen can download the SingPass app to verify their Face ID on file in the
government's biometric database, as well as verify transactions, appointments,
and other services 

By 2025, the government hopes the SingPass app in tandem with its expansive
network of facial recognition cameras will eliminate the need for paper checks
entirely. 

The only thing a person would need to complete a transaction in a shop would be
their face and a phone to verify the final amount charged to their profile.   

The facial recognition software could also be used to dole out loyalty reward
program points to people automatically, even if they forget they’re eligible.

The benefits of such an expansive biometric program, the government contends, is
that private corporations won’t have control over sensitive data.

The facial recognition software program is part of the Smart Nation Initiative
the government launched in 2014 to build up a biometric database of all its
citizens, which currently has information on four million Singaporeans over the
age of 15

In 2019, the Singapore Tourism Board began using facial recognition cameras to
allow guests at certain hotels to check in without IDs

‘In particular, only officers with legitimate use of the data would be able to
access the data,’ Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, the Minister-in-charge of Smart
Nation, said.

Balakrishnan said the businesses would benefit as well as they’d have the
productivity gains of the all-encompassing biometric system without having to
pay for any of the associated costs of operating or maintaining it.

The country is already testing several neighborhood-wide networks of
surveillance cameras installed on lamp posts around the country’s capital, and
is targeting 2022 to begin opening up data collected from these public
monitoring tools to the public and industry.


HOW DOES FACIAL RECOGNITION TECHNOLOGY WORK?

Facial recognition software works by matching real time images to a previous
photograph of a person. 

Each face has approximately 80 unique nodal points across the eyes, nose, cheeks
and mouth which distinguish one person from another. 

A digital video camera measures the distance between various points on the human
face, such as the width of the nose, depth of the eye sockets, distance between
the eyes and shape of the jawline.

A different smart surveillance system (pictured) can scan 2 billion faces within
seconds has been revealed in China. The system connects to millions of CCTV
cameras and uses artificial intelligence to pick out targets. The military is
working on applying a similar version of this with AI to track people across the
country 

This produces a unique numerical code that can then be linked with a matching
code gleaned from a previous photograph.

A facial recognition system used by officials in China connects to millions of
CCTV cameras and uses artificial intelligence to pick out targets.

Experts believe that facial recognition technology will soon overtake
fingerprint technology as the most effective way to identify people. 

Shanghai Jiao Tong researchers test facial recognition software
