Face unlock - now also in the car. Convenient feature arrives in 2021 Cadillac XT4

However, you can open the car with both a pin code and a fingerprint.

The 2021 model year Cadillac XT4 compact crossover has a useful feature familiar to all users of modern smartphones: face unlock. How it works is well demonstrated in the video below.

As you can see, a special module with three cameras - two infrared and one RGB - is built into the upper part of the car door frame. Due to this, face recognition is provided. According to the source, the system recognizes up to 106 areas of the face, and the process itself takes only 2 seconds. Up to 8 users can be stored in memory. The system is designed to work both night and day.

Users who find this way of opening a car inconvenient can use the built-in fingerprint scanner or a standard digital touch panel to enter a pin code - this function has been present in American cars for many years.

Interestingly, the American version of the Cadillac XT4 lacks face recognition. It appears to be exclusively offered to a Chinese audience.
