In the next few months many law enforcement agencies across the country will be armed with a new tool – facial recognition scanners. Police will be able to use an i-phone to take pictures of a person from as far away as five feet, or close enough to scan their retina, then cross check the picture against a database and pull up any records of the person. But privacy advocates are already raising questions about “facial” profiling. WDET’s Quinn Klinefelter talked about what the new recognition feature is intended to do with the head of the U-S Justice Department’s Community Oriented Policing Services – or COPS program – Director Bernard Melekian.
