Facial recognition software can now identify people even if their face is COVERED in a breakthrough that will help quickly unmask criminals

A facial recognition system can identify someone even if their face is covered up.

The Disguised Face Identification (DFI) system uses an AI network to map facial points and reveal the identity of people.

It could eventually help to pick out criminals, protesters, or anyone who hides their identity by covering themselves with masks, scarves or sunglasses.

The software could also see the end of public anonymity, sparking privacy concerns from one academic, who has labelled it 'authoritarian'.

Thanks Mel. Very interesting. May also have applications in missing persons' cases.
