UCD: iPhone Armed With Facial Recognition App Lets Cops ID Perps on the Street

Why need some wacky ID invention when you have an iPhone? Beware, the ultimate iPhone application for the cops…

A facial recognition app.

I stumbled onto this article on the web and found it immensely interesting. iPhone can do ANYTHING! The designers really understood the pain and agony for the cops to ID a certain individual.

No more taking down IC numbers and checking with the database! Hurray for cops, booray for us, does that mean that the cops could just snap snap snap on the street?

What about our human (privacy) rights?

Anyway, this is just a nifty little something that makes life very much easier for the cops. Now all cops should just get an iPhone together with their pistol and stuff.

See it in action!
