The camera - any camera - is an optional purchase with this Zbook.

I would guess that even if the Workstation has a camera that it is not an IR camera.

If your system has a camera,

Windows Hello / Facial Recognition requires an IR type camera.

If your Device Manager lists the camera and the camera is a type IR,

then you can use Facial Recognition

If your computer does not have a camera,

There is no camera -- not plain camera and not IR camera.

 

If there were a camera installed in the computer,

and

If the Device Manager did list either the camera or a Webcam

and

The description of that camera or webcam would tell you whether the camera is an IR.
