New York will use facial recognition to catch terrorists
New York governor Andrew Cuomo wants to give the state's bridges and tunnels a high-tech makeover, starting with the installation of cameras, sensors and facial recognition equipment. Under his initiative, crossings, airports and other strategic locations will be equipped with facial recognition systems as an anti-terrorism measure. Facial recognition still isn't perfect and has issues recognizing people of color, but the state does have some experience with the technology. Its DMV, for instance, uses a facial recognition system that has led to over a hundred arrests since it was upgraded in January this year. Cuomo also plans to incorporate auto-tolling systems to save you hours of driving time.
