Implementing this via smartphone apps provides more consistency in UX\/CX and is technically simpler than supporting it directly on a variety of different endpoint devices.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketsandmarkets.com\/Market-Reports\/facial-recognition-market-995.html?gclid=CjwKCAiAqOriBRAfEiwAEb9oXZ-cTcLNll7R1xHnKbbh3rl8TeM56DjlbZ6cPn50DXRydBpHlSgb-xoCJT4QAvD_BwE\">Markets and Markets research<\/a> estimate that the facial recognition market will be worth $7.76 billion in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Biometic authentication has a big advantage of convenience.  But the downside to the technology however is that currently it is often spoofed without too much effort.  There are numerous reports of software falsely accepting spoofed <a
