Facebook's Testing an Improved Facial Recognition Process for Identity Verification

Facebook is reportedly developing a new process for a facial recognition system which would enable users to confirm their identity by sharing a video selfie. As you can see in these screenshots, provided by reverse engineering expert Jane Manchun Wong, the new process would guide users through a process of angling their head around in different angles, in order for Facebook to get a full record of what the user looks like. And to reassure users that the same won't be misused for nefarious purpose, Facebook's notes state that, Facebook has actually been working on its face ID systems for the past couple of years, with different examples of the same process shared by users back in 2017.
