Dear BrianJust too bad, these guys do not read the report (in German) just the article... the report is very specific and it is not sying face recognition is perfect, just if used correctly and if you try to keep hooligans out of a football stadium it works better than anything else we have... still not perfect.Also does not mean we use it in Germany, but the test was needed and helpful since it is a real and large field test.Funny how people discuss things based on not having read all the facts.... amazing and maybe a bit dangerous?
