Image Recognition: Think Tattoo Recognition
June 8, 2016
I know that some bad guys encourage their “assistants” to get facial tattoos. I am not personally into tattoos, but there are some who believe that one’s immune system is strengthened via the process. The prison tattoos I have seen in pictures mind you, did not remind me of the clean room conditions in some semi conductor fabrication facilities. I am confident that ball point pen ink, improvised devices, and frequent hand washing are best practices.
I read “Tattoo Recognition Research Threatens Free Speech and Privacy.” The write up states:
government scientists are working with the FBI to develop tattoo recognition technology that police can use to learn as much as possible about people through their tattoos.
The write up points out that privacy is an issue.
My question:
If a person gets a facial tattoo, perhaps that individual wants others to notice it?
I have heard that some bad guys want their “assistants” to get facial tattoos. With a message about a specific group, it makes it difficult for an “assistant” to join another merry band of pranksters.
