Real Networks SAFR facial recognition integrated with physical security platform in Dubai

Biometrics specialist Real Networks is integrating its SAFR facial recognition with its Integrated Physical Security Platform (IPSP) in Dubai.

Moro Hub, a subsidiary of the digital arm of the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), has signed an agreement of understanding with RealNetworks to implement the SAFR face biometrics engine and additional computer vision capabilities.

The partnership will allow for more accurate and faster unbiased facial recognition for its platform providing access control and security analytics.

Mohammad bin Sulaiman, CEO of Moro Hub, said: “Our partnership with RealNetworks is a key step towards accelerating our efforts to elevate the security services in the country, to promote, preserve and enhance smart living and seamless business operations.”

Moro Hub’s next-generation hosting capabilities provide flexibility and reduce bandwidth and compute resource requirements for SAFR’s facial recognition, the company says.

Walter Candelu, VP Middle East, RealNetworks, added: “This partnership aims at setting new standards for the security implementations in the region. We at RealNetworks take pride in partnering with Moro Hub, the fastest growing digital entity in the region, with a clear objective to bringing cutting-edge technologies to the client’s fingertips.”
