Daily Mail - Science & tech 

Body cameras worn by police in the US could soon have in-built facial recognition software, sparking'serious concerns' among civil liberties groups. The controversial technology, branded'categorically unethical', would automatically scan and identify every single person law enforcement interacts with. It is intended to help officers track down suspects more effectively, but experts are worried it could lead to false arrests and suffer from inbuilt racial and other biases. If developed, the equipment could become a regular sight on the streets of cities across the world. The manufacturer behind the move has now brought together a panel of experts to discuss the implications of the'Minority Report' style technology.
