I wouldn't use/trust it for mission critical.
Most of us have found that facial identification is more gimmicky and novelty than anything else. If you have to put in 5 or 10 or 15 or 35 pictures or more of yourself in the system for it to recognize it is you...then you shouldn't expect much.... My success rate was under 5% so I moved on to other hobbies LOL. YMMV
It can work in certain situations like a business that requires everyone to stop in front of the camera and the camera is at head height. Outside of that, the percentage of being accurate is probably not going to be super high. You will get a lot of false "confirmations" doing a search.
Someone here posted once how horrible it was inside his house identifying his neighbors and others as him. Another guy his kids and wife were being tagged as him inside the house.
Unless you spend the big bucks that casinos and airports have LOL.
As always YMMV and some here use it and say it is acceptable for their use case.
Heck even in ideal situations like a business with the camera at ideal height and optimal lighting it fails....

What do you think of Dahua's "Uyghur Warnings"?
Good luck. Wish you no ill will. I'm not here to argue with people simply to contribute when and where I can. This is also followed by lending my views on current technology and how it impacts all of us. It's undisputed that splitting of the atom changed the world but once again man decided to...
Banks, airports, casinos and clandestine organizations back when I was working for a company that had those types of clients were all server/software based processing. Milestone, genetech and avigilon. Granted that was a decade ago but just from what some of the guys here have experience with I haven’t bothered to look back into it.
I also don't think you are going to have much success trying to use facial recognition software that is built into the camera. It's going to be severely resource limited (CPU/RAM) and there is likely to be little to no improvements made to the software once released by the manufacturer.
If you really want facial recognition that is anything other than a marketing gimmick, I think you are better off using the software based AI models that are out there and that are being actively developed and improved. Even then, at this point in time, facial recognition is going to fail more often than it works as expected.
