Israeli start-up seeks to identify terrorists by their faces

(JNS.org) An Israeli start-up has developed technology that can identify character traits based on analyzing faces with 80-percent accuracy, providing the ability to ascertain who might be a terrorist. Faception’s technology—presented last week at a high-tech accelerator conference in Mountain View, Calif.—also claims to be able to identify extroverts, pedophiles, white-collar criminals, people with high IQs, and professional poker players. Founded in 2014, Faception is collaborating with an unnamed homeland security agency to help spot terrorists, Gilboa said.
