Augmented-reality app Blippar is introducing ? -recognition software that would allow users to scan faces with their smartphones and profile them.
Billed as the world’s first ? recognition for phones, the app would make it possible for people to scan faces—either in print, on TV or in real life—and learn their name and other information.
“Augmented Reality Face Profiles will change the way we communicate and express ourselves,” said Ambarish Mitra, Co-Founder and CEO of Blippar. “Our face is our most expressive form of communication and with this release we are allowing this to become digital for the first time.
“Our ? recognition technology combined with our knowledge graph enables people to express themselves through the things they love, including their hobbies, opinions, key fun facts, and so much more.”
A database of the faces of 70,000 public figures has already been created, and users are able to scan their own faces in order to add them to the database. It is also possible to add people’s faces to the database without their permission, which may raise privacy concerns.
Blippar’s AR Face Profiles are part of a much larger project by the firm to create a ‘visual browser’ that allows users to learn about the world around them through their smartphones.
Combining machine learning with augmented reality, the Blippar app is able to identify things using a smartphone’s camera—be it brands, everyday objects or works of art. Information is then provided about the item scanned, such as its name and history.
Other firms exploring the technology include Facebook, which already uses it to automatically tag users’ photos on its social network. In November, Facebook acquired ? recognition startup Facio Metrics last month in an effort to improve its current system.

You still got your face though. And people can be discreet about it and scan you without you even knowing and still get your info.
The technology is being perfected for what's to come. Amen. -

If what you say is coming actually is coming that means I get to murder people. I'm cool with that. My psyche is built for this apocalypse ? . -

There are pros and cons to everything. But there will always mass hysteria, over paranoia and of course fear mongering...

Well you would have to survive world war 3 first. And you only have a 1 in 4 chance of surviving that. For ? has declared that 1/4 of the worlds population will die from that initial conflict that begins the last 7 years of this age. And if you are still inside of America on the day of her demise, you will have a 0% chance of survival. For everyone still inside of her will perish on the day when she is attacked suddenly and without warning. Amen.
It's better to put your trust in the LORD and be assured of the eternal salvation of your soul my friend. Amen. -
I known about the technology and keep up with it. With laser technology and such it's easy to recognize ? identity instantly and also body as well.
