Computer vision dazzle

Computer vision dazzle also known as CV dazzle, dazzle makeup, or anti-surveillance makeup, is a type of camouflage used to hamper facial recognition software, inspired by dazzle camouflage used by warships.[1] CV dazzle combines stylized makeup, asymmetric hair, and sometimes infrared lights built in to glasses or clothing to break up detectable facial patterns recognized by computer vision algorithms in much the same way that warships contrasted color and used sloping lines and curves to distort the structure of a vessel. It has been shown to be somewhat successful at defeating face detection software in common use, including that employed by Facebook.[2][3] CV dazzle attempts to block detection by facial recognition technologies such as DeepFace "by creating an 'anti-face'".[4] It uses occlusion, covering certain facial features; transformation, altering the shape or colour of parts of the face; and a combination of the two.[5] Prominent artists employing this technique include Adam Harvey[6][7][8] and Jillian Mayer.[9]
