Do simple sunglasses prevent FR from recognizing you?

Because a lightning bolt painted across your face will make you blend in.

 It has been illegal for almost a hundred years in tx to wear a mask in public. I don't doubt the do-gooders would make "face altering makeup" a crime, too. |

there are baseball caps and glass with small IR LEDs aimed down over the face. the light is invisible to the naked eye but all cameras see is a white blob of light over the face...

I dont know if paint would do it, dont these systems work off distances between facial features? eyebrows to nose, nose iris, iris to iris, iris to mouth. things that CANT change unless you flex, and then take a wide selection of data points indicating yes or no and say this person has a 99% chance of being X person from database we built using data previously collected. The IR thing sounds interesting,

Members of al Qaeda and run-of-the-mill street criminals all thank you for this information. Last time I checked Al Qaeda was best known for their suicide attacks, kind makes hiding your face irrelevant. Heck most of the time they video their own attacks and post them to the web. I'm guessing this isn't something they would loose any sleep over. And I don't know if you have much experience when dealing with run of the mill street criminals, but more often than not, they are fucking stupid. I don't mean just slow but real honest to God morons. And they are usually lazy as all hell. I have a hard time picturing any of the ones I have known getting special hates and elaborate setups to fool the cameras. |

I'm certainly no expert, but I have seen what an IR light will do to video that is rendered for viewing by people. Are you saying that the information necessary for facial recognition systems to do its thing is still captured by the camera despite the IR? |

Older software requires the eye location and distance between them measurable. Estimation can be conducted for sunglasses depending upon the quality of the photo.
Dunno about the newer stuff, budget won't allow upgrading. |

Exactly what is the point about facial recognition software anyway? For three shifts, they are going to have to hire 930,000,000 employees to keep tabs on everybody. Then of course, more people to keep tabs on the new employees.

Very intense lower wavelength light can be especially harmful because you can't see it, so you won't have a blink response while it's burning your retina. |

If you really want to break the algorithms instead of just camera detection, you'll need to apply some serious countershading and change the profile of the eye-nose bridge.
Make the eye sockets, lower surfaces of the lips and underside of the nose bright, bring down the brightness of the forehead, cheekbones, nose, upper lip and upper chin, change the profiles and the algorithm will have a much harder time making out exactly who you are. |
