What is the Security Vision Database?[edit | ]
We call "security vision" technologies systems that utilize algorithmic image processing for purposes of security. Images can be visual, but also acoustic, thermal, etc. The most common technologies include for example facial recognition, iris and fingerprint recognition, object detection, object tracking, etc. These technologies are deployed for a variety of purposes: surveillance, crime prevention, border control, public health surveillance, traffic control, but also political or labor surveillance. The Security Vision Database is an attempt at documenting their existence across the world.
