Delhi Police has traced about 3,000 missing children in just four days by using facial recognition system (FRS).
Delhi Police had acquired a new facial recognition system and after getting the go ahead from the Delhi High Court, used this software to match with the data that the Women & Child Development Ministry (WCD) had. WCD had data of some 45,000 children living in various children homes.
As per ministry's information the identities of nearly 3000 missing children have been established and efforts are on to help them reunite with their families.
The FRS software stores the facial features of any child and matches them with photographs and database available with the Track Child portal as a result of which the identity of the child is instantly established.
