Seems like they not only defeat computer facial recognition, but human facial recognition as well.
Defeat facial recognition

Re: Defeat facial recognition
#12One problem with this approach is that it would be relatively easy to train classifiers that are looking for people who are attempting to avoid detection.
The site seems to advocate that people use this as a opportunity for self-expression, which would hopefully cause there to be such diverse designs that the best you could do is train classifiers for specific high-profile individual people. Even then, those targeted individuals could just use a new, randomly generated dazzle every day.

#13Wear highly reflective object like a diamond on the face, preferably on the forehead. It will project light to the camera and create random pattern on the face. What do you think?
Re: Defeat facial recognition
#14this is like captcha with faces though.. good idea.
Re: Defeat facial recognition
#15While this can evade detection using full-facial classifiers, it's not difficult to detect individual facial features. If you can detect the eyes, nose, and mouth, and have them in a region in an orientation matching a face, you could assume that it's probably a face. While it is less efficient it's still a possibility.

Or a car.

#16Wouldn't a surgical mask and sunglasses do the same with less work? They have designer masks and sunglasses.
From the article:
- Sunglasses, for example, are a known occlusion which some algorithms account for.
- wearing masks in public can be illegal.

How else would it work? What would make thing A be able to recognize a face and thing B inherently not? Computers can (and probably will) become as good (or better) as people at recognizing faces.

A reflective eye-patch would be a nice idea. Are the materials which interfere with cameras but are not too annoying to other people?
Re: Defeat facial recognition
#19It might be worthwhile to consider that detecting a face and finding the identity of a face are not the same. From the "Eigenface" article on wikipedia,
"The pictures constituting the training set should have been taken under the same lighting conditions, and must be normalized to have the eyes and mouths aligned across all images."
I would be curious to see how well face identification works with various milder forms of camouflage.

Wearing a centurion nosebridge cover can quickly become a known occlusion too. Dazzle is a short term fix.
