My understanding is that typical N95 masks may not prevent facial recognition. Different systems have different performance but many will work successfully with a masked subject. The position of the eyes are one of the key inputs to many facial recognition systems.
Exactly! This is my point , this is the biggest reason that I want this glasses. But I didn’t found more information if they really work besides their own site.

Yeah but then you look like a idiot. Not like these cool DOUCHE GLASSES.
Google photos can recognize my butt somehow. So I don’t doubt facial recognition systems can work around masks when given a clear photo to work with
Son!
Please don’t spread false information… China has been able to successfully identify citizens wearing masks for years…

China government created a software that circumvent masks and they can profile your face even if you’re using them.
It does not “circumvent” masks. That is impossible. It just uses other facial data. But you’re limiting it’s efficacy.
Humans are extremely good at facial detection but if my mother walks by me wearing a mask, sunglasses and a baseball cap, I would not recognize her.
How is that even possible?
I wonder if they somehow have that technology, or just say they do in order to intimidate people.
u can unlock ur iPhone with a mask on. if apple can do it, I think the Chinese government can too
