This article talks about new technology where drones can recognize one’s face from a distance, and can even guess at their intentions. The developing drones would be able to find you in a crowd and know what you’re thinking! Technology would be used to profile you, collect data about who you are and how you think, and, with enough information, could track your every move. Transmitters and other tracking devices could be easily disposed of, but you cannot run away from your own body and mind. Lead biometrics researcher at Progeny Systems Corporation, explains, “If this works out, we’ll have the ability to track people persistently across wide areas.” Six contracts have already been made to find faces and spot bad intent. The computers are used by using a two dimensional image of a face and making a three dimensional model and then being able to recognize it anywhere, with any facial expression. This technology can even recognize the difference between identical twins. There would be no escaping this new tracking device that not only sees you, but recognizes the people you associate with. So if you planned on becoming a criminal anytime soon, you might want to think again.
