Glad someone is concerned about one area of protecting privacy. If u think intrusive technology is good for safety your wrong, people will always find a way to commit crime and having information constantly collected by different sources will always be targeted by savvy criminals.
Please Japan, we need more privacy tools in the US...HELP US OUT !!
this is the best way to draw suspicions. the reflective material white material is called "mask". the idea with ir leds is quite old and doesn't work on modern cameras anymore. there is no way to hide from the modern surveillance states.
+frank kleine It may work on cameras in germany where most cameras are standalone analog.
Wow, great ! This feature should be added to the hardware of Google Glass, if Google is really serious about limiting the "radioactive" face recognition functions in Glass
Laugh as much as want but being the age I am and seeing how much freedom has been lost what's in store for the future.Think.
Zoz did this with the DEFCON 17 Badge back in 2009. Search RUclips for "DC17 Badge Hack: Anti-Surveillance System"
Very good technology to protect privacy. Needs to be sold all over the world especially in Hong Kong.
Wouldn't be hard to make these yourself. IR LEDs like these are only about $1/ea at Sparkfun. Setting up 11 LEDs with resistors, connecting wire and a power source would be extremely easy.
supershwa -please .Can I speak to you ?
you can get 10 ir leds for only 50 cents on sites like ebay, aliexpress etc

No. This is not an argument. In airport there are custom officers and policemen whose job is to do that. You don't need face recognition devices. Safety MUST not prevails over privacy. The issue is politic, not legal. Having in any part of any country devices that logs automatically every people is a way to monitor everyone, not only criminals, and most constitutions of democratic country (should) prevent that.
this gives us a way ro enhance our privacy in the future a way to communicate without fully identifying ourselves
Unfortunatly, most cameras don't work like antennas, you can't tune them into specific frequencies like a radio; the most you can do is add some material between the lens and the sensor (or simply over/on the lens) that is opaque to certain wavelengths and transparent to others (as long as the sensor itself is sensitive enough to the wavelengths that aren't blocked).
Most cameras, specially cheaper ones, don't got a strong enough filter; it's hard/expensive to make a filter that blocks lots of IR but doesn't darken visible light too much.
.
You can probably see the flashes from a TV remote on your cellphone camera if you point them at eachother (and press a button, obviously).
They are trying to build facial recognition software to get around this
Cyberpunk is now.
I’m sorry buddy but cyber punk sucks
@@ismaelh8152 Not the game. The genre. Also, yes, it was supposed to be a negative thing.
The thing is color cameras see IR as well, the filters aren't strong enough. Try pointing a TV remote at a digital camera you'll see.
By doing that either the price will rise significantly or the picture will be much darker and/or noisy, or possibly both.
Well, analyzing the data has been automated in large parts already and with the increase in data to look through, will only become more prevalent in the future. So this device could practically make you invisible to an automated facial recognition based surveillance system (at least until they adapt the algorithms to specifically search for this new pattern too or add IR filters to the cameras).
В России посадят за такие. Не сейчас, так через пару лет. Предсувствую, как в метро будут командовать: снимаем очки, надеваем масочки
This guy is a genius.
Kipkay did this years ago...
That depends, recognizing the presence a person when the face is not identifiable should not be a big problem. But the real power in automated surveillance systems lies in matching the faces to a large data base of known persons (terrorist watch list, or even a national ID database). This would cease to be possible if one were to use those glasses. The system might still flag you as a suspicious person, but they wouldn't be able to create an automatic profile of your movements.
"The Tokyo-based team has developed a device - also a pair of specs - that prevents Glass or similar technology from recognizing a face. The specs are fitted with 11 near-infrared LEDs which shine a bright light, confusing cameras looking to locate a face." It is IR, just looks that way to the camera.
How long till they figure a way around this technology?
I understand your comment ...however, I hope they don't expect the public to purchase them as is.
I think his research is about how to upset the face recognition systems by altering the brightness of certain areas of the face, the IR LED aspect is irrelevant, it could use regular LEDs and achieve the same effect. See the glasses at the end which just use design to stop the facial recognition system.
That Mitsubishi monitor is very interesting as well...
those leds would be more usefull around cars license plates. i know one killer was cought becouse it matched the time when person went missing and his car drove by the cctv camera.
True, but I don't think it would take very long to adapt the algorithms and/or cameras.
So you don't mind sending me the exact details, pictures included, of your daily routine (and everything that happened recently out of routine)?
Sure u can detect faces but try doing face matching when half the face is a bright blur.. Cheap cameras are blinded by these IR leds u can't recover any useable data in those spots.
This is what I'm talking about! Let the privacy wars begin.
Only way a camera is privacy invading is if it is in your own home without your permission, at which point you ask them to put the camera away or to leave. If you are in public, then it is not a privacy invasion to have someone take your picture. You're in public, interacting with other people outside of your control is pretty much the definition of being in public.
If they were really collecting data, they could screen out the frequency detection of their camera of that level of light, running on sort of slider that automatically filters that frequency of light when it is detected.
Almost every electronic DIY person knew this already. Besides the fact IR LEDs can damage your eye if not properly shielded.
kipkay did this years before
True, but I thought this was more about face detection and less about face recognition, as higher end systems (government) are able to work around the issue and low end cameras anyway have trouble picking anything up.
It would be better if the entire surface was made of transparent leds and the pattern could be randomized.
Just a thought, I'm not putting down the makers and I think it's a cool idea.
its not cheap but technological demand and popularity in the future will drive the price down for example dvd players ipads smartphones etc started first very expensive now in most cases affordable now third competition will drive the price down
If the pattern was randomized, they could create a composite from the bits that aren't lit on different shots...
Yeah yeah... What about a wavelength filter at the front of the camera? FAIL!!
Unfortunately there is no escape from face recognition.
Only the camera see the lights. Humans would likely not notice them, it's mostly outside of the visible range for humans.
This wont work at places that take security seriously, its a privacy measure not a criminal aid.
I wonder if aluminum face paint would do this just as good? maybe powerful sunscreen?
This is just a bunch of infrared lights glued to a pair of glasses
Very good SPY tool :) Use this on Cinema :)
Because some people don't like the idea of the government tracking everything you do and saving catalogs of information about everybody, especially since they can (and already have been caught) abusing their power in this regard. I don't really mind face detection as long as it's just for detecting known criminals (or terrorists), I just don't like them spying and cataloging info on citizens, big brother is already too big as it is.
They don't need to build new recognition software, only need to use better cameras.
This Is Cool a Little 2001 Space Oddity
wouldnt wearing dark shades even at night provide the same effect?
OPENCV IS not a fool. And can map out your face in total darkness.
I'm perfectly fine walking around with my tin foil hat thank you very much
Still have the same view?
Benjamin Franklin answered that question best "Those that give up freedom for security deserve nether"
Time to rob the bank with that.
It takes 5 minutes to update the face detection software to detect the FIXED pattern that the glasses project.
what about biometric authentication ?
I'll wait for sunglasses that have tiny LEDs
yes!, finally a good invent.
A tactical flashlight would work also
Where can I buy one?
+Emil Phoryew Just make one. You can sew infrared LEDs in a cap or a hoodie.
ixiahj - can I ask you ?
Much cheaper & easier to wear a face mask...AT this point they can tell who you are from satellites in space, using your specific EMF signature or from your specific DNA frequency...that's another reason to resist ANY DNA COLLECTION AT ALL COSTS!!!
Why should this be illegal? Do we not have the right to privacy? I haven't done anything illegal but that doesn't mean I'm open to my activities being tracked by facial recognition.
can i get those glasses in gucci??
But as long as those glasses are mass produced, you won't be able to differentiate one from another.
That's really neat.
Где купить такие?
The perfect photobombing device :-)
sooo I can just glue IR LED lights to my glasses and boom presto, I'm invisible to the borg?
very stylish
LOLOLOLOLOL only people with fear about getting caught by police would buy a shit like that....
This is not really new, is it?
Haha! This is litteraly just a pair of glasses with some bright IR leds stuck on them!
And here I was worried they wouldn't be stylish.
This will only make the wearer being tracked by digital algorithms. Most likely this was made in germany. Cameras don't need face for specification-they have walk analysis and motion line tracking.I saw a video about a german supersecurity prison and its outdated cctv system where there ere much less cameras than a Korean convenience store and that all analog standalone having to be manually rotated. Even african countries have PTZ digital cameras.
Nifty for snipers with undated scope too! :D
if you havent done anything illegal why would you want to hide your face?
Were you looking for funding? Yes that works, and your average maker with $10 of parts from a thrift store and a hot melt glue gun could make it. And . . . its a bit impractical to wear around all that much. But I would imagine anybody who needs such a thing has had them embedded cleanly into the frames of glasses, no wires or visible signs of it for years.
Remain incognito by strapping a flashlight to your face. Why not a day-glow pink neon burqa?
Near IR can be seen my many humans, especially in the periphial. This would be quite distracting.
One of those people... UV is far worse. XD
Hey guys I have invented a new thing!
Glasses with LED lights on them! REVOLUTIONARY!!!!!
What about mirrored sunglasses?
NeedAnarchyBAD mirrored sunglasses reflect only visible light. others parts of spectrum enable to see your eyes, but I think we can improve that technology (to enlarge spectrum).
So, how is this different than wearing a mask?
its not a flashlight. the human eye cant detect the light because it is infrared.
Add a fake nose and moustache and you are all set.
Technology to counter technology: endless war.
well somebody's been watching White Collar :D
aka some one got diving glasses and taped LEDS on.
You just made thousands of criminals happy
Just wear sunglasses or a beanie or a hoody
who feels like robbing a bank!
Exibitionists have more privacy than Xbox One users.
Don't have to worry about that anymore..... Now we all wear masks!!! LoL
Yes haha
And then they will call those glasses ...illegal.
ii desu ne!
there's got to be a better way than wearing defensive glasses
It's called a prototype.
I sure hope no more than an hour and $50 dollars was invested in that proof of concept because I have those components just laying around in my junk bins. lol
And yet the Japanese understand the Privacy issue.. So its a good thing.
Or just wear a mask the next time you rob a store with some high res security camera that could actually make out your face?...
Then use correct statements in your comments. You claim these sorts of things are privacy violating, and they clearly are not.
they're nothing special...just infrared LEDs you can make them yourself
You'll probably get arrested wearing this in China
Now this face recognition technology is useless because everyone wear mask.
This looks like a 5 year old made it...quite simplistic....
