The Microsoft, through software PhotoMC (Photo Missing Children), is helping to find missing children, which is one of the most serious global problems.
Microsoft PhotoMC was developed in China and aims to help families find missing children through the interface of Microsoft's facial recognition program (API).
The API analyzes 27 different facial features and can identify one person in multiple photos, even at different angles and with varying facial expressions.
The Microsoft Face API is a cloud-based service that uses advanced algorithms to scan images of faces, identify features and determine the likelihood that two faces belong to the same person. Five children have already been found.
Technology is part of the Microsoft Cognitive Services, a collection of tools that allow developers to add features such as emotion detection, sight and speech recognition, and language understanding in device and platform applications.
