As technology demands evolve and see changes, the area of facial recognition technology can be of great use for vulnerable populations. As it stands, the integration of facial recognition technology and behavior analytics can enhance the safety and operational efficiency in sensitive environments like assisted living facilities. 

Avi Golan, CEO at Oosto, and Dieter Joecker, the company’s CTO, discussed how these technologies can be strategically deployed to identify and respond to incidents quickly. They emphasize the critical role facial recognition technology plays in environments where constant monitoring is essential. Golan used an example of its potential use for locating missing persons.

“So let’s take assisted living complexes. Right? You find you you really get someone leaving the facility, a memory care facility, leaving the premises of the facility, and and now you lost a person. The second thing you have to know, who is this person that you lost? Right? This is where you bring the facial recognition to this important use case of finding that person that really left the facility. Will someone fall?” noted Golan.
