It is primarily used for storing bitmap images of faces, offering a standardized format for applications that require facial recognition or face-based authentication. These files contain the pixel data for an image, detailing the characteristics necessary for software to identify and process facial features accurately. The FAC format plays a crucial role in various fields, including security systems, personalized user identification, and social media platforms, facilitating efficient and reliable face-based operations.
