Big Brother just got scarier: Japanese CCTV camera can scan 36 million faces per second - and recognise anyone who has walked into its gaze

~Biometric camera stores details of everyone who walks past it
~Stores 'library' of face info
~Can scan through 36 million faces per second searching for people
~Will be on sale to governments within next year

A new camera technology from Hitachi Hokusai Electric can scan days of camera footage instantly, and find any face which has EVER walked past it.

Its makers boast that it can scan 36 million faces per second.

The technology raises the spectre of governments - or other organisations - being able to 'find' anyone instantly simply using a passport photo or a Facebook profile.
The software from Hitachi Hokusai electric can scan through 36 million faces a second looking for its 'target'. The software can scan through days of CCTV footage almost instantly
The 'trick' is that the camera 'processes' faces as it records, so that all faces which pass in front of it are recorded and stored instantly.
Faces are stored as a searchable 'biometric' record, storing the unique

When the police - or anyone else - want to search for a particular individual, they're searching through a gallery of pre-indexed faces, rather than a messy library of footage.

'We think this system is suitable for customers that have a relatively large-scale surveillance system, such as railways, power companies, law enforcement, and large stores,' says the company.
The company aims to make the system available within the next tax year, according to a report in DigInfo.
The system does have limitations - it can only scan faces within a certain field of view in front of the camera, and faces have to be at least 40x40 pixels in size to be indexed by the system.

The software automates the process of searching large numbers of faces in days of CCTV footage. It will be available in the next tax years, say its makers

I'm not liking this one bit.

The natives used to do a rain dance to pray for rain. I think I'm going to start doing an EMP dance, pray for an EMP to wipe all this fancy big brother crap away. Poof, gone. If a rain dance worked for the natives, maybe an EMP dance would work too.

Not disputing the specs but 36 million faces per second results in a frame time of 2.78E-8 seconds or .0278 micro seconds. Let's say a space of 3 feet between faces. Each face would have to be moving at 108,000,000 feet per second or 20,454 miles per second or 73636363 mph. The speed of light is 186,282 miles per second. This line of people would have to be moving at 10% of the speed of light.

How practical is that?

Not sure what you're saying?
The computer can search 36 million faces a second after your image has been captured.

Mindboggling! The good thing is that the entire worlds population can be scanned within 3 1/2 minutes. But what should happen to the machine after everyone is scanned. Sure a rescan every year can be motivated... But it looks like this scanner may have been developed with the interstellar or galactic market in mind, or it is a gross overshoot... Interesting technology though... I wonder how they accelerate the line of people to 10% of speed of light, at that speed they would go around earth in just a bit less than a second, which would produce ginormous centripetal forces at maximum speed. Further how do they prevent people to burn up from air friction. This must be some kind of alien technology!

I think they will need a special ap that only recognizes hair in their case.

depends on the definition of the word "scan".

my guess is, when some US defense contractor is doing their Powerpoint Engineering to "study the technology" for DHS - they will improvise as necessary to obtain the contract.

and they will provide jobs for the Pentagon staff'ers that give them the contract.

they could be talking about almost anything.

same methodology, different subject.

The Crosman 2240 is a .22 caliber compressed air pellet pistol that shoots about 490 FPS without alteration.




To employ this at the cameras, you need this:

In Tel Aviv:
- Henry Kissinger destrroyed 58 rrecognition camerras today too! In 3 continents!

Right.

So if all 300 million americans had their faces indexed, the camera could recognize anyone that walked past it within less than 10 seconds.

I remember seeing a WWII French Resistance pistol. Apparently these were made from pressed metal like an AK and I think they were 45 calibre. The idea being it was enough firepower to take out a nazi and get their weapon from them.

Can't recall name or find a pic.

Was it an air pistol?

I've been interested in this story for a while now, it was posted either here or at GIM1 a while ago - something like a 2 shot (?) small caliber pistol that was used strictly for concealment, to walk close to German soldiers, pop them at close range and take their weapon(s).

I wonder if this is the same that you are mentioning - ?

This isn't what you are talking about, but I bet it is along the same lines.
