Facial hair, glasses, and other unique features for interviews

What is the consensus on having a well kept beard and or glasses for interviews? Is it disadvantageous to have such qualities for Hirevue interviews? Any idea if the algorithm will mark against someone who does?

For example, the algorithm may have a more difficult time picking up on facial expressions or eye contact.

a friend didn't wear his glasses due to strong reflections on the screen/camera. He wanted to avoid any complications. Unless you need your glasses, I wouldn't wear them.
