Partnership with Artificial Intelligence Company - IREX

The Surveillance Camera Commissioner’s Code of Practice in UK demands that there must be “human intervention” if computerised facial recognition software or artificial intelligence are used to identify suspects for crime. The Association have long held the view that human Super Recognisers are the RIGHT people to perform that role and check identifications from machines.

IREX are a global company offering video analytics to Smart Cities and they are committed to ensuring ethical use of their systems. IREX will now offer Super Recognisers International selection and training to those purchasing their products. Daniel Eborall, their Global Business Development Director stated,

“We see a huge potential in a strategic collaboration with Super Recognisers International that could lead to further ethical standards in facial recognition practices for end users. IREX is determined to be an industry leader for ethical standards and best practices for AI surveillance and believe our partnership will help end-users learn and adhere to those standards.”

This is a major step forward for Super Recognisers and the use of artificial intelligence to fight crime. See the IREX website for more on this company:
