Smart mirrors\u003C\u002Fh4>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, Am I Healthy?” Asking your mirror this question might soon be possible. By combining FRT into a seemingly simple mirror with a built-in camera and existing technologies like \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fmedicalfuturist.com\u002Faspiring-dermatology-app-under-the-microscope-the-skinvision-review\u002F\" target=\"_blank\">SkinVision\u003C\u002Fa>’s skin analysis and \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.nuralogix.ai\u002F\" target=\"_blank\">Nuralogix’s transdermal optical imaging technique\u003C\u002Fa> to measure blood pressure and stress level, a quick scan can reveal a lot by simply looking at your own reflection (or by asking your mirror!). Such a smart mirror could advise you to get that new mole on your cheek checked, recommend meditation in case your stress level is higher than usual and refer you to your doctor if there are any abnormal fluctuations in your blood pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Care for healthcare professionals\u003C\u002Fh4>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>More than just for patients’ health, FRT can also be used for the wellbeing of healthcare practitioners themselves. \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.medscape.com\u002Fslideshow\u002F2022-lifestyle-burnout-6014664?reg=1\" target=\"_blank\">Medscape’s 2022 report\u003C\u002Fa> found that 47% of physicians feel burned out, 64% were colloquially depressed and 24% suffered from clinical depression.

Looking for mischief\u003C\u002Fh4>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The applications of such technology can further be adapted to other areas within the healthcare system.

Touchless access control\u003C\u002Fh4>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Access control will probably become the most typical use of facial recognition technology: it limits surface contact (and thus disease transmission) while allowing accelerated admission to office buildings, and can be used in many work-related areas: allowing dedicated team members to enter departments, operate turnstiles, or access other entry points with their face. As face recognition was developed to identify users even with a face mask on, it can be a valuable ally in pandemic situations. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Mask detection\u003C\u002Fh4>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Facial recognition systems are also capable of recognising people not wearing \u002F not properly wearing a mask in a setting where it is mandatory, and notify the person, or the authorities if necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Does the ‘F’ in FRT stand for friend or foe?\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The answer to this question is: it depends on who you are.
