Service: Face recognition at schools - Face recognition at the building’s entrance

Responsible organisation: Nice and Marseille (Local Government)

The two largest southern cities of Nice and Marseille, proposed that some high schools should introduce face recognition at the building’s entrance. Under the plan, students would pass a face check prior to entering their high school. The program was to be funded and implemented by Cisco, a US company. The project is on hold after the French data protection authority considered it illegal
