What is Face Recognition Technology? According to this, the Bank is not required to provide proof of survival in writing. Bank officials will verify the faces of pensioners through mobile app. As soon as the scanning of the face is completed, the concerned pensioner will be registered in the application.This will be the digital proof of being alive. Many pensioners are unable to go to the bank due to old age. As such, this new technology will definitely be useful for pensioners.
