Long-Range Facial Recognition (300M) for Real-World Environments

long-range facial recognition system using camera and optics for identification at distance
Download Brochure

The long-range facial recognition system, Facial Recognition at a Distance (FRaD), is a fully automated identification solution that captures and matches unconstrained faces at distances up to 300 meters in daylight.

How It Works

Target

Identification from 300m Away

Signal

Commercial Off-the-Shelf Lens

Camera

Continuous Video Streams

AI

Recognition

Database

On-board Watchlists or Enterprise Databases

The system combines high-resolution imaging, commercial-off-the-shelf optics, and advanced facial recognition algorithms to detect and identify individuals from extended distances. 

Captured images are processed in real time or batch mode, enabling identification against local or remote biometric databases. The system is designed to handle variations in lighting, angle, and motion, ensuring reliable performance in dynamic environments. 

FEATURES

Long-Range Facial Recognition Performance

Matches Faces at up to 300m in daylight conditions

Continuous video‑to‑ID pipeline

Automatically extracts faces from live video and alerts on matches.

High‑accuracy engine

U.S.‑made algorithm optimized for unconstrained, low‑resolution imagery.

Stabilized optics

Autofocus, auto‑exposure, and vibration reduction improve face image quality.

Network‑optional operations

On‑device matching; supports use with large, remote databases when connected, match against millions of individuals.

Operator display

Integrated laptop/tablet view for aiming the camera and viewing matches with metadata.

On‑the‑fly enrollment

Add individuals to watch-lists in the field to support evolving missions.

Robust to appearance changes

Handles off‑pose, hats, facial hair, eyeglasses, and sunglasses.

Mission‑ready use cases

Military, border security, and law‑enforcement operations.

Proven in the field

Several hundred biometric matching systems deployed for comms‑limited environments.

Why It Matters

Traditional biometric systems require close proximity to capture usable data. Secure Planet®’s long-range facial recognition capability removes this limitation, enabling identification in scenarios where physical access is not possible or practical.  This expands the reach of biometric systems and enhances situational awareness across large or complex environments.
