UK college begins testing facial recognition attendance system {Engadget}
Mar 6th 2009 12:24PM If this is the UK then expect it to be promptly banned. The Data Protection Act doesn't allow for this sort of thing. The library at my High School (equivalent of Middle School for Americans) had fingerprint recognition in the library which was banned.
