Face Recognition?? No, that's a bit dated. What today is the recognition and being back app from Google Glass incorporates this function. Well, it does not focus specifically recognize us by our back, but its major function is to identify without seeing your face, for which generally would be back, though not always the case.
Google has launched a fierce application development program for his glasses, which are among the most anticipated devices of the year. Note that one of its applications, which we talked about in this article, has won the Google Faculty Research Award.
The creators of the application, which incidentally is called InSight, are Dr. Srihari Nelakuditi University of South Carolina and Dr. Romit Roy Choudhury of Duke University.
InSight allows us to identify a person when you can not see his face and being even in a crowd. The software makes use of visual data, design patterns and movement data of the individual to create a kind of "visual fingerprint." In tests that were conducted recently, the application could recognize 15 different people properly for 93% of the time, and all without using any technology of facial recognition.
This application undoubtedly have many uses, one of which is to identify criminals who bring their faces covered if previously has the same data.
InSight is just the tip of the iceberg, and that in the coming months will begin to emerge more applications that can really fabulous greatly influence our lifestyle.
