When you enter your local Walmart, keep an eye out for the visible part of the latest technology the retail chain has been installing near their doors and throughout the store.
Paging: George Orwell. Mr. Orwell, you there?
High-tech facial recognition cameras are installed eye level near the entry-ways of their new store fronts, but it’s the software behind these anonymous plastic half-globes that is raising concerns (see the video on the following page). Understand, that it isn’t about having anything to hide, these cameras set new a precedent for both personal and business use. These cameras are able to cross-reference your image with online social media networks to match a name with the face, they can learn a great deal more and may be able to track lot of data points. How much the system can record and track is unknown, but in the video on the next page you can see that it not only tracks faces, but can categorize objects and motion:
Big brother is watching.
People don’t seem to understand that “normal” video surveillance is d iwn from a camera mounted at least a foot or so above and in a corner so as to get the widest field of view, but not so high as to distort or allow faces to be hidden by hats. You don’t mount normal, surveillance cameras at eye level, but that is the best level to mount a camera to insure capturing all the points on a face fo facial recognition.
That’s one of the problems today we have too much surveillance by a government our privacy is gone I don’t feel it’s necessary to put cameras up everywhere to see what this one or that one is doing if the cops need to find someone they need to go out and do their job they don’t need surveillance to take public privacy away
it’s not in the wall mart here where we live
