Using Face Recognition
Users can register their faces using the TV camera, and sign in to their Samsung accounts using the 
Face Recognition function. Only one face can be registered per account. Depending on the ambient 
illumination level and/or shadows over a face, the TV may have difficulty recognizing it.
To use the Face Recognition feature, you need to install a sold-separately camera on the TV. Make 
sure that the TV is connected to the Internet when installing the camera so that it can download the 
software required for Face Recognition.
 
"
Please read through the instructions before using Face Recognition. For more information, refer to " Read 
Before Using Voice, Motion, or Face Recognition ".
 
[When connecting the TV camera to 2014 Samsung TV models, make sure to connect it to 
the specified USB port of the TV. Other USB ports do not support the TV camera or Face 
Recognition.
