US Air Force, Photon-X to build cameras that could identify suspect with recorded facial expressions

The United States Air Force has handed over an exclusive contract to the Alabama based Photon-X company to bring out a camera that could track suspected people with the help of recorded facial expressions. It is said to record even the minor facial expressions such as smiles and frowns. Later, with the help of those recorded facial movements, the camera is going to build psychological profiles of the criminals. The Behaviometrics Analysis System that would be installed in the camera makes it possible to track down a person.

The company claims that with just a single click, the camera will create a 3D image of the person. Making use of the bio-signature technology and 3D images, the camera will trace out the person in any part of the world with much ease.

Earlier, USA adopted DARPA gait analysis program to identify the terrorists through their body language. Now, it is all set to adopt the Behaviometrics Analysis System, which is much more advanced. Notably, Behaviometrics Analysis System also uses body posture movement, gait and micro-expressions of the people under surveillance.

Further, these cameras are going to be helpful in monitoring suspicious behavior. Hence, they can be of a great use to the police if they are installed at government offices and banks.

Emphasizing on the greatness of Behaviometrics Analysis System, the company has said that this system would also be installed in humanoid robots in order to detect suspicious people. Once the humanoid robot detects such people, it will approach them in a friendly manner to dig out the details tactfully.

If this system really works out, then the United States of America would literally become the most advanced country in the world even in terms of defense.
