"Our facial recognition system identifies and captures information of living people through optical technologies such as light spots and infrared projection, so its safety factor is higher than traditional ones," said Ms. Li, an employee from Shenzhen-based high-tech company Oebbec at the China (Guangzhou) International Building Decoration Fair 2021 (CBD Fair).

The CBD Fair 2021 was inaugurated on July 20 in Guangzhou. This is the first large-scale exhibition launched in Guangzhou after the city managed to defeat the resurgence of COVID-19, and many enterprises are eager to showcase their high-tech household products.

A newly-designed smart switch developed by Orvibo, a smart home company in Shenzhen, is ready to use only by retrofitting the original without having to transform the circuits and debug. In addition, it is very convenient, according to Tong Wei, the vice president of the company.
