New Side to Face-Recognition Applications and Doubts
New Side to Face-Recognition The NY Times has a new feature entitled New Side to Face-Recognition Technology: Identifying Victims. It talks about a yet neglected application of recognising faces, identifying victims of kidnapings in online photographs. The developers also admit that this industry is also prone to marketing just like any other, since most of the technology is rarely what it is boasted to be. Face recognition still cannot reliably identity people from dubious photographs, and apparently there's still a long way to go. | Alex J. Champandard 935 posts. Thursday 17 January, 12:13 Reply
London with his 1 millions of video cameras... Hello! Yeah sure, but in London, there some special cameras putted on the top of a pole with a 360 degre view. These video cameras are directly linked with the list a criminal of the local police and national police ( and probably the international one for the most wanted criminals ). So, when a face is recognised ( with potention change in his physic ) an alarm is triggled and then a police men will check the alarm and will ensure that this is really a criminal. Yeah, face recognition technologies have a long way to go but, the current technologie is able to spot a specific face in the mass. The techno can do errors but a humain will always check to be sure that the machine got right. So, this is another gadget for mass observation project like echelon.... Viva big brother!
