Las Vegas startup NameTag released a video that demo’ed its facial recognition app for Google Glass. The app pulls from photos on public profiles on social media, as well as a database of 450,000 known sex offenders in the National Sex Offender Registry. NameTag hopes to pull from profiles on dating sites PlentyOfFish, OkCupid, Match.com and others soon.
NameTag, part of the developer group FacialNetwork.com, says its software is so accurate and powerful that it can spot a face using the Glass camera, send it wirelessly to a server, compare it to millions of records and in seconds return a match.

Et déjà une autre application pointe son nez :
And the floodgates appear to be open already. Later this month, according to Forbes, 24-year-old Stephen Balaban of San Francisco’s Lambda Labs plans to release another unauthorized app for Glass at the Chaos Communications Congress hacker conference in Hamburg.
Balaban’s FaceRec app will allow you to collect and catalog images of faces seen through the Glass lens, along with other recognizable objects such as computer screens and license plates. It will then let you integrate that data with location coordinates, so you’ll have a record of who or what you saw, and when and where you saw them.
