Face-Recognition for Fighting Fraud
From Slashdot citing the Des Moines Register:
Digimark Corp. of Beaverton Oregon will be processing 2.1 million Iowan drivers license photos to prevent fraud. The idea is that the system will alert a DOT employee if a person renewing their picture is different than the previous photo. This is a nice example of how smart cameras can automate processing to allow for new ways of monitoring. The article notes that similar biometric checking systems are used in Alabama, Colorado, Kansas, Massachusetts, Oregon and Texas.
