Chinese Police Now Use Facial Recognition Glasses to Fight Crime

Facial recognition technology will change the world. Still emerging into the mainstream, facial recognition technology has the potential to reshape that way you interact with the fringes of both the digital and real world. For the uninitiated, facial recognition is a biometric technology that scans people's face, photographs and recognizes them as an individual. Impressively, the technology can identify facial features like the space between the eyes, the depth of the eyes sockets, the width of the nose, cheekbones and the jawline. This technology has been recently entered the mainstream with Apple's iPhone X facial recognition feature, but the appeal of facial recognition goes beyond just consumer goods, and will eventually be an integral part of security.
