Facial Recognition

Facial Recoginition

Nlets will research technology solutions for positive and instant ID using facial recognition. This will require the capture and transport of images to a state DMV to run facial recognition software against the DL image server. Images will be captured using standard mobile devices with built-in cameras. It is anticipated that this research will lead to a responsive technical design and a cost effective solution to meet the positive and instant ID needs of LE and public safety officials.

As part of this research Nlets will:
identify privacy issues that could impact using facial recognition; determine the feasibility of sending images over the Nlets network from a mobile device; define data exchanges to support requests to run facial recognitions; and, develop a pilot solution for 1-2 states.

Goals

• Facilitate research on using technology for positive/instant ID
• Conduct a privacy impact study
• Implement a pilot to determine the feasibility of sending images to a state DMV
