Its technology is used in various industries, such as public security, finance, retail, and healthcare.
The company has a strong focus on innovation and invests heavily in research and development. SenseTime has a large R&D team and collaborates with several universities and research institutions to support its innovation efforts. In addition, the company has been granted numerous patents related to its AI technologies.
Apart from facial recognition technology, SenseTime also offers AI solutions for smart city applications, such as traffic management and public safety. The company has a global presence, with offices and operations in several countries, including the United States, Japan, and Singapore.
SenseTime has received significant funding from investors and has been recognized for its innovative technologies. However, the company has also faced some challenges related to the use of its facial recognition technology for human rights violations. In 2020, the US added SenseTime to its Entity List, which restricts US companies from doing business with the company due to concerns about its involvement in human rights abuses in China's Xinjiang region.
