Megvii Technology Limited announced the deployment of its facial 
recognition-based smart access solution, Koala, in Thailand, Brazil, and the 
United Arab Emirates (UAE), to help international enterprise customers enhance 
safety and strengthen security in commercial and office settings. This 
represents another milestone in the Company's efforts to help businesses across 
the globe accelerate their digital transformation with AI. 

The Koala solution is designed to support enterprise customers in 
authenticating and controlling access to private and restricted locations, such 
as office buildings, school campuses, and residential compounds. Powered by 
Megvii's proprietary algorithm, the solution enables swift authentication and 
registration of authorized personnel and supports functions such as attendance 
tracking and visitor registration and management. 

Overseas locations that have recently installed Koala include:

- Hug Gym, Chiang Mai, Thailand: Megvii customized and deployed a comprehensive 
smart access solution that allows gym managers to monitor and supervise the 
reception area with ease, including enabling one-to-one facial authentication 
for employees and registered gym members. The solution also encompasses 
real-time alerts to flag unauthorized access into the premises. 
- SEB High School, Brazil: Megvii deployed the Koala solution to improve campus 
safety and security, allowing for one-to-one facial authentication and identity 
verification of students, teachers, administrators, and other school staff. The 
system can also swiftly detect and flag access by unauthorized persons. 
- One of the Largest Oil Rig Builders in the United Arab Emirates (UAE): The 
Koala solution was deployed to enable the efficient verification of over 20,000 
employees and registered visitors. This also removes the need for employees to 
use access cards or fingerprint verification, which can take considerably 
longer than one-to-one facial authentication, especially in the challenging 
environment of field operation.
