Remember FindFace? The Russian Facial Recognition Company Just Turned On A Massive, Multimillion-Dollar Moscow Surveillance System

But Minin is proud of the work, saying the company has been working on the project for two years and it was now finally being switched on. “The technology can can work across hundred thousands of cameras in real time,” Minin claims. He says one of the unique selling points of the business’ facial recognition tech is that it doesn’t require training on databases of faces beforehand like most systems do; it uses “very neat neural networks” to made assessments as to whether a face is a match.

Will NTechLab’s tech ever reach the U.S.? It’s possible, given American government organizations rate the tech highly. It’s been ranked highly by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology for detecting faces and human activities and, though there are some security concerns for U.S. government bodies working with Russian companies, NTechLab has a partnership with Genetec, a video surveillance provider that already has contracts with the American government.

It’ll be going up against some significant startups if it does emerge as a U.S. player, including ClearView, which was the subject of ainvestigation. The Peter Thiel-backed business scrapes social sites like Facebook and Twitter and helps police find matches with its massive database of faces. Minin wasn’t sure about that strategy, given it wasn’t dissimilar to what FindFace used to do. “[ClearView] are creating really bad perception in general about the face recognition,” he added.

NtechLab has also been working on some high-tech glasses, which a police officer wears and will alert them to possibly criminal faces as they march about the city. According to the, ClearView appeared to be working on similar tech. NtechLab at least has a product, but it remains a prototype and is not part of the huge Moscow system. “At least, not yet,” said ClearView’s comms chief Nikolay Grunin. “The technical capability to use them remains and the pilots still continue.
