The iPhone X’s notch is basically a Kinect
This is the reason that even the makeup, glasses, etc. that people have come up with to counter facial recognition are going to be completely ineffective in a few years.<p>Contemplate if you will a hallway immediately past Customs in an airport. Equip it with multiple sensors of this type to provide complete coverage and redundant imaging/sensing. While you're at it, set up gait recognition as well. Then correlate the received profiles with the passport/identity data of the people just passed through customs.<p>Congratulations, you've just started building a database of everyone entering the country with biometric data that can be checked in the field with equipment costing less than $1000, and which can later be cross checked to find people traveling with false or multiple IDs ("this facial structure comes back as matching (person x) and (person y), and the gait is almost the same. Pick him up."), and it could all be done with technology that exists today.<p>Edit: autocorrect
