[From Lenovo adds multi-touch, facial recognition to its S10 netbook]

One of my new interests is facial recognition technology for consumers. We know about Google’s name tags (or Faces from Iphoto).

A few days ago, Lenovo announced its Veriface technology in its new notebook. It uses facial recognition with the built in camera to allow you to log on to your computer. It also logs pictures of unsuccessful attempts. I can’t vouch for its effectiveness (or usefulness) have no idea how it works, but its another example of facial recognition technology moving to consumers.

Here is a video of the technology being used:
