Photo tagging and facial recognition just got scary

By Andy | September 4th, 2008 | 1 Comment

That’s right, the world of photo tagging and automatic facial recognition appears to be a little bit closer and dare I say, a little bit scarier.

MyHeritage have developed a funky product that allows you to upload all of your photos and then the system automatically groups photos.

So, say for example you upload a family album which has photos of you from when you were 4 all the way through to the present day the system will (with a little bit of learning) be able to match you in all the photos and in turn tag them for you.

Anyway, it’s a seriously exciting product with endless opportunities for the future. I guess it’s just a case of seeing how they develop it. Good job!
