A Chinese company claims to have developed facial recognition that can successfully ID faces that are partially obscured by masks – which most are these days to ward off the risk of contracting coronavirus.
Hanwang Technology, which also goes by the English name Hanvon, began work on the technology in January shortly after the beginning of the viral outbreak, and rolled it out less than a month later.
