MILWAUKEE POLICE FACE OPPOSITION OVER FACIAL RECOGNITION TECHNOLOGY
Milwaukee police announced plans to use facial recognition software company Biometrica to help solve cases. Milwaukee police are encountering significant opposition from city leaders and the public regarding their plans to use facial recognition technology to search for suspects. Eleven members of Milwaukee's Common Council have sent a letter to Police Chief Norman opposing the software, and the public voiced their concerns at a meeting with the city's Equal Rights Commission. Facial recognition technology, or FRT, involves taking an image, such as a single frame from surveillance video, and comparing it to a database of photos of known individuals to help identify the person in the video.
