Academics at the Chongqing Institute of Green and Intelligent Technology in southwest China say they have developed a new system of face-recognition software which could radically change the way we shop. The system paves the way for shopping to be done without any need for PINs or passwords. The software can even factor in changes to faces caused by the ravages of time – and shopping. The Chinese system isn’t the first to use face-recognition as a shopping tool: Finnish company Uniqul unveiled a similar device in 2013.
