UK police test ‘faster-than-ever’ facial recognition software

“Facial recognition surveillance software being tested by British cops that allows ‘faster than ever’ data searching and tracking of subjects is raising concerns among privacy activists.  NeoFace software analyses dozens of facial features from digital CCTV images or police body cameras and matching them with the 90,000 photos stored on Leicestershire Police’s database, which had become the first unit in the UK to test it.  Processing takes a matter of seconds.  ‘Besides the speed it’s also impressive because it can even find family members related to the person we’re trying to identify.’ Identity unit Manager Andy Ramsay adds.”
