This report covers Lighthouse AI, a startup hoping to install facial and voice recognition devices in homes. The program is similar to the access software in cellphones, but can do much more. You can set up multi-factor to include voice.
The technology uses 3D sensors to identify, not only human faces, but pets as well.
How about your door opens automatically as you approach it… Until someone “Steals your face right off your head”. He’s gone. RIP Jerry.

I think this would be fantastic innovation altogether to make security of IoT devices more efficient. However there has not been much progress made until today on the security of these applications against brute force attacks. Moreover, IoT itself is in a growing phase of technological development and this startup would definitely be an icing on the cake.
