Does anyone know how true this is? I watched the video and it's pretty convincing but compared to the security footage so often seen in the news this seems like it would be insanely high resolution.
- _Algernon_ 4y agoI thought such footage is bad quality because nobody wants to store months of 4k footage of tarmac. Maybe they process it immediately for facial recognition, then store a lower resolution version? Or they just use AI "enhancement" and pretend they got the right guy.
- tylerag 4y agoOr just use AI to detect faces (without recognizing them), and store the high resolution faces for later processing.
- dsfyu404ed 4y agoThey don't really care who citizen <random alphanumeric string> is until they get uppity at which point they'll figure out who's name to put on the arrest warrant. Cheaper to process now and store the row in the DB than store the whole images for years.
- brk 4y agoSee my other comment, it's basically not true at all, IMO.
