Face Changer: Building a Personal Countermeasure against Biometrics

Via TechAcute: many people today feel a privacy disruption from traditional CCTV cameras. If they are hooked up with facial recognition, machine learning, and people directories, this gains a whole new dimension in information privacy invasion. Not everybody wants to be read-out like a piece of data, but what can you do to protect yourself from that?

In the clip below, you can watch maker Naomi ‘SexyCyborg’ Wu building a proof of concept for a device that is able to prevent biometric scanners to identify you or calculate your emotion based on your expressions.

You can find out more about the technology in a paper on arxiv.org
