This is as scary as it is fascinating. So much for getting lost in the crowd.  A man wanted by police was nabbed at a pop star’s concert thanks to facial recognition technology -- which picked the alleged crook out of a crowd of 60,000 people. Chinese police said the suspect – only identified as Mr. Ao – was attending a concert by pop star Jacky Cheung in Nanchang last weekend when he was spotted by CCTV cameras. “The suspect looked completely caught by surprise when we took him away,” police officer Li Jin told state news agency Xinhua. “He didn’t think police would be able to catch him from a crowd of 60,000 so quickly.” Authorities said Mr. Ao was identified by cameras equipped with facial recognition technology at the venue’s ticket entrance and apprehended by police after he sat down at his seat. Li told China Daily that the CCTV system at the concert venue was connected to the police database. Mr. Ao was wanted for “economic crimes.” The BBC reported a local news site released footage that appeared to show Mr. Ao telling police if he had known about the cameras, he wouldn’t have gone to the concert.” China has an extensive CCTV network with more than 170 million cameras. Chinese police have used facial recognition technology to capture a number of suspects in the past. In August, police in Quigdao, Shandong province, arrested 25 fugitives thanks to cameras set at a local beer festival. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2...-at-pop-concert.html | ||

Amazing, what’s more amazing is the time it took to white out all license plates on the vehicles. ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

They caught him at the ticket turnstile entrance, so it really is one person at a time. -c1steve | |||

Oh, well now I'm not nearly as impressed. I thought they picked him up out of that massive crowd. That's what I get for just reading the headline. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.

As others have noted, the facial recognition scanner was posted at the ticket entrance so it's once face at a time. Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity DISCLAIMER: These are the author's own personal views and do not represent the views of the author's employer. | |||

So, in a thread about sorting out 60,000 people in Nanchang, China, I randomly zoom in on this picture from Vancouver BC, and what do I find? A hot Asian chick.  -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||

Not exactly. In a line of people, seems to me by the following statement: “authorities said Mr. Ao was identified by cameras equipped with facial recognition technology at the venue’s ticket entrance and apprehended by police after he sat down at his seat.” Edit: as already pointed out here. | |||

They all look alike to me.  It would be cool if the image viewers provided image/cursor coordinates. | |||

Told cops where to go for over 29 years… |
To be fair, there are a lot of hot Asian chicks in Vancouver. It ain’t like you found the needle in the haystack... What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???  | |||

If you look closely I don't think the license plates are whited out. But what I did notice is moving objects seem to be duplicated. If you look at the cars in the middle more open stretches you'll notice that they are doubled. About 30-50 feet between them. | |||

Even more crazier than that > Terapixel https://viewer.gigamacro.com/v...1=12834.28&rot1=0.00 FWIW, it is essentially made by sewing multiple pictures together, not your typical cam. | |||

^^^ radinski That is strange.  The 3 cars circled are duplicated in the same lane, with the cars in the same relative formation. The 1 car circled is duplicated in different lanes and in different relationship to the other cars. The upper duplicate cars appear brighter and in sharper focus. | |||

Canada is indeed blessed! I was in line for a takeout lunch in Toronto some years back, happened to turn around and behind me was the most beautiful woman I've seen in my whole life -- yes, Asian. -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||
