So, I did have a quick look at howdy the other day. The low resolution is normal, I believe. As I understand it, Windows Hello and similar rely on the two separate flashes to create a 3D model of the face. Windows Hello is actually specified to already work with 320x320 pixels. Unfortunately, it seems that Howdy simply uses the image into OpenCV for normal 2D facial recognition. While this approach is a lot simpler and easy to implement, it is also quite a lot less secure. > Will it possible to integrate on the workstation with some > improvement? I personally think that integrating it would currently give users a false sense of security.
