Railway police in Zhengzhou, a central Chinese city, are the first in the country to use facial-recognition eyewear to screen passengers during the Lunar New Year travel rush, Chinese state media reported (link in Chinese) this week. The devices have already helped nab seven fugitives related to major criminal cases such as human trafficking and hit-and-runs, and 26 others who were traveling with fake identities. The glasses are connected to tablets that contain an offline database that can match passengers with suspected criminals. Unlike fixed cameras with facial-recognition capability, the wearable allows police to act more swiftly before their targets disappear into the crowd. Beijing-based LLVision, which developed the glasses, told the Wall Street Journal (paywall) that the device was able to identify individuals from a 10,000-person database within one-tenth of a second during tests. A basic, video-only version of the glasses retails for around $630, and has been sold to countries including the US and Japan, according to the company.x
China is leading the world in the use of surveillance technology, with plans to install 400 million new CCTV cameras (video) nationwide in the next three years, and to build a facial-recognition database that can identify any Chinese citizen within three seconds. The far western region of Xinjiang, where authorities are increasingly tightening surveillance around the majority Muslim population, is turning into a laboratory for testing high-end spying technologies
in unrelated news half of the chinese population has been put in prison

We need to start looking into countermeasures.

We don’t even need these literally just nab all the colored people

>hit and runs i thought if you helped anybody there that you admit guilt because the state is supposed to do everything. so why go after hit and run people if theyre obliged to do nothing more? i mean what's the point of calling police there? wont they just take care of everything automatically? what a nightmare

You're a retard if you think the technology is anywhere near having usable face scanning glasses, especially in China of all places. This is a Chinese scare campaign, happens there all the time and only retards believe the shit the Chinky government puts out.

Shinigami eyes.
Colton Parker
But don't they all look alike? A facial recognition database in China feels like a joke from cracked or something
Caleb Sullivan
you deserve many yous for that one
Ayden Richardson
Seems kinda useless in China, you'd need a super computer strapped to your face to differentiate between the bug people.

shad up Ivan.

Interesting point. I do know the face recognition systems (cameras) are already in place in China and New York. Although they won't admit what they are in the US. I've seen the demonstrations. They work. Couldn't say about the sunglasses though.
Carson Diaz
Read the article Instead of fixed cameras, now police officers are wearing portable ones
No tech breakthru. Just one more application of an year old tech developed by the West Rest assured

You're a retard if you think China is not THE leading country when it comes to Artificial Intelligence. Look up Baidu and Tencent.
Chinese AI companies have offices in fucking California, man.

Daniel Long
It must be a very advanced technology to be able to distinguish Chinese faces.
Alexander Thomas
Do you really think it's reliable enough to be usable? How much power does a NN need to differentiate faces? Where's the usability stats in this thing?
>AI """researcher""" k bud im a programmer too

Kys traitor. You don't want us to on the day of the rope because it will be so much worse.

China treating Kebabland as his playground.

First outlawing rap and now this Even though they use sewage as cooking oil, gotta hand it to the chinks. I can only imagine how much the USA would progress if we didn’t have so many useless minorities

You can see where this is heading.
On June 14, 2014, the State Council of China published an ominous-sounding document called "Planning Outline for the Construction of a Social Credit System". In the way of Chinese policy documents, it was a lengthy and rather dry affair, but it contained a radical idea. What if there was a national trust score that rated the kind of citizen you were?
Imagine a world where many of your daily activities were constantly monitored and evaluated: what you buy at the shops and online; where you are at any given time; who your friends are and how you interact with them; how many hours you spend watching content or playing video games; and what bills and taxes you pay (or not). It's not hard to picture, because most of that already happens, thanks to all those data-collecting behemoths like Google, Facebook
A futuristic vision of Big Brother out of control? No, it's already getting underway in China, where the government is developing the Social Credit System (SCS) to rate the trustworthiness of its 1.3 billion citizens. The Chinese government is pitching the system as a desirable way to measure and enhance "trust" nationwide and to build a culture of "sincerity". As the policy states, "It will forge a public opinion environment where keeping trust is glorious. It will strengthen sincerity in government affairs, commercial sincerity, social sincerity and the construction of judicial credibility."
>that contain an offline database in before some retard decides to use an online database and then it's "laughing man" all the time, every time.

Apple's face recognition software failed, but Chinese are once again better.

What's happening? I'm seeing more and more chinese posters lately. Don't you guys have to buy a 4ch pass to post here?
Christian Bell
This is terrifying, but a good read on that article.

You know now for a bit you dont need to enter the CAPTCHA and that was the only thing stopping Chinese from posting on this Slovakian Skull Sculpting Site. We will see CPCbros posting more and more.

Wrong. China is a shithole in most places, but surveillance of the public in China is state of the art. Do you know they now have the biggest satellite in the world, bigger than the SETI satellite in Puerto Rico?
