When you are carrying groceries it would be helpful for a face recognition to unlock the door and push the door open, hands free access is helpful. Another tip good for handicapped.

If possible, try to refrain from using facial recognition. I previously worked in NEC, which owns the no.1 face recognition technology in the world. FR technology will never be as accurate as fingerprint and iris. It is possible for someone who look somewhat like you to unlock your door. Maybe 1:5000 chance? The more faces you register, the accuracy decreases. The most dangerous part is anyone with a photo of your face can just print it out on a A4 paper, and use it to unlock your door. Might want to use FR as a 2FA, instead of "either or" to unlock doors.

As someone dealing with access control system, I agreed that FR as 1FA is not suitable for home use. For faster recognition speed, vendor would increase the false acceptance rate. Another thing to consider is the site condition, strong backlight (especiallt corridor unit) or lowlight condition would creates a lot of issue.
