("The National Institute of Informatics [led by Professor Isao ECHIZEN 越前 功] said it has developed eyeglasses that help users protect their privacy by disabling facial-recognition systems in cameras. The Privacy Visor, created by the government-affiliated institute and an eyeglass maker in Japan’s Fukui prefecture, uses unique angles and patterns on its lens that reflect or absorb light. This prevents the recognition systems in digital cameras and smartphones from spotting a human face in a shot and focusing on it. * * * The glasses offer enough visibility for people to walk without trouble, but it may cause difficulty in driving or riding a bicycle")
