Facial Recognition Technology
As humans, we are able to recognize and distinguish between faces, yet computers only recently have shown the same ability. In the mid 1960s, scientists began work on using the computer to recognize human faces. Since then, facial recognition software has come a long way.
Have you ever seen the TV show “Las Vegas”? If so, you have also seen facial recognition software in action. In this TV series, the fictional Montecito Hotel and Casino uses its video surveillance system to pull an image of a card counter, thief or blacklisted individual. It then runs that image through the database to find a match and identify the person. Usually, the “bad guys” end up in jail. But what looks so easy on TV doesn’t always translate as well in the real world.
Although many attempts on using face recognition technologies have failed ( some examples are that in 2001, the Tampa Police Department installed police cameras equipped with facial recognition technology and Boston’s Logan Airport also ran two separate tests of facial recognition systems at its security checkpoints using volunteers.) in recognizing people on the streets (as the surveillance cameras), facial recognition technologies are rather accurate when it comes to clear facial photos.
My Heritage, a company specializing in genealogy and family tree building, uses facial recognition technology to give its users one more feature to facilitate their genealogical research: their program runs through all the profile photos on their database (over 400 million) scanning for photos of people who might look like the searcher. It is unique in this field and many users have claimed to have found relatives – or potential relatives – using this technology.
