Special Frames Thwart Recognition Software

Carnegie Mellon University College of Engineering and School of Computer Science researchers have created eyeglass frames that can fool commercial-grade facial recognition software. The software will identify “the wrong person with up to 100 percent success rates.”

The researchers used the eyeglass frame to fool Alibaba, the Chinese e-commerce giant’s “smile-to-pay” feature which was launched with fanfare in 2015.
