Facial recognition technology won't work in China; the striking resemblance between them is an overkill.

The facial recognition in apple iPhone X is not a reliable choice of security amongst East Asians.

TechZiga:
Chinese security operatives have began to use smart glasses equipped with facial recognition technology to identify citizens. The new initiative is to help identify culprits, missing persons, or crime witnesses by scanning the faces of people in a crowd and areas where there are no CCTV cameras. Before now the country uses CCTV cameras that can identify citizens and even track their movements around, now the facial recognition sunglasses will help security personnel in both crowed area and areas where are no cameras.

While this may be a good initiative, some organisations are already criticizing the new move. One of such, is Amnesty International who believes that this will only help grow the country’s invasive surveillance.

The glasses are made by LLVision Technology Co., a Beijing-based company, but are currently in use at Zhengzhou, a large city in east-central China. The new glasses are being used by police officers in train stations to scan those traveling for the Chinese New Year Holiday. Report has it that seven suspects have been nabbed as well as 26 persons travelling with forged identifications. Report says that the glass cost ¥3999 which is about $636 around N230,000 per unit.

Thank you for asking him that question.

People are responsible for the advancement of any nation. The same cannot be said about us. People here only sit and criticise without wanting to work to bring about that 'new thing' they wish to see in Nigeria.

Wow. Instead of the IG of police to go over there, see how it's done, weigh the benefits it has in curbing crime, the financial resources required for such, consider if such can be replicated here in Naija, he'll prefer to have commissioners of police 'settle' him steadily. We keep drifting backwards

You are running faster than your shadow grin

For such technology to be halfway useful, you need to have a solid database of the citizens and aliens in foreigners country first.
That data (which will include a 3D image of each person) is what the facial recognition glasses will be connected to, in order for it to come up with a positive match.

Nigeria doesn't have the data of up to 25% of its citizens yet. Even it doesn't have an accurate population figure, to begin with.

Nothing new. This was already tested in dubai a long time ago. The network needed to sync the huge database is a major setback to this technology. This is surely a failed project for now. Still being used n dubai on patrol cars but the mobile glasses is still something of the future.
Re: Chinese Police Starts Wearing Smart Glasses With Facial Recognition by KingsleyCEO: 3:47pm On Feb 11, 2018
Permit me to bring this home.

Nigeria police force to begin wearing smart glass in 2090, the smart glass will tell how much you have in your pocket. This will go along way to settle issue of "no change" between motorist and the police, a situation that sometimes result to avoidable shootings.

According to the police PRO, once this takes effect, the killing of civilians like in the recent one that happened in Edo will easily be avoided.

Your stat of less than 25% captured data of Nigerian citizens is ridiculous.

Close to 100million or more Nigerians who use telecom services are captured by the NCC. What about data kept by the Banks, NIMC, INEC, NPC, FRSC, NIS, JAMB, WAEC, Universities etc?? I don't see how these data can't be harmonized. People who aren't already accounted for can be identified and included. I bet that would even be less than the 25% you mentioned.

As for our population figure being inaccurate, it's the same elsewhere. Population figures are only estimates, hence cannot be accurate.

@ Gavelslam - Very Good question.

Some people even expect the government to clean their house.

If they really go to school to learn without wasting the teachers efforts, energy, precious time. They are suppose to know that, every nation is built by the input or contributions of all and sundry.
