The article claims that nearly 1,000 schools in China are using facial recognition supplied by a company called Baidu Brain. 

The article looks at Hualong Primary School, a school in Guangzhou in China, and highlights several other Middle schools that have installed facial recognition to manage students and staff on campus. Hualong school uses a physical system by Tenniu Technlogy, which integrates facial recognition using Baidu Brain's software development kit (SDK).
