You will now have your face scanned by live recognition cameras at London Bridge station
A set of live cameras recording faces has launched at London Bridge station as part of the British Transport Police’s trial of the technology.
Live facial recognition cameras have been installed at London Bridge station, one of the UK's busiest train stations, as part of a trial by the British Transport Police. The cameras use artificial intelligence to scan faces and compare them against a list of serious criminals. If a match is found, an alert is sent to an officer who will manually review it and decide if the person is a suspect. The trial aims to test the technology in a railway setting and provide feedback from the public. However, privacy and civil liberties campaigners have raised concerns about the use of mass biometric surveillance without proper monitoring or regulation.
