The important priority is to ensure we have a tariff free trade access to the european market. Half of all our trade is with europe. I would also say we need to look very carefully at the terms of any trade relationship. People in germany are voting in a general election which is expected to give Angela Merkel a fourth term as chancellor. Donald trump faces a growing backlash from us sports stars after his criticism of players whove been protesting over race relations. Six people have been injured in a suspected acid attack at a Shopping Centre in east london. Now on bbc news, its time for click. This week, how safe is your face . Pinpointing pollutants. And. Im not sure youre pointing that hairspray the right way, lara. Facial recognition. Tech that can identify someone from their face is fast becoming a thing. This biometric id has been used, albeit together with passports, at immigration control in airports. In dubai, they want to do this without the gates, allowing passengers to walk more easily through the airport. And it has also found its way into apps as an alternative to passwords for validating a payment. Face recognition could be coming to shops. In china, alibaba recently premiered their smile to pay system at a kfc store. Unlike our passports, pin codes or passwords, our faces are on public display pretty much all of the time. And that makes it possible for the authorities, or anyone else, to automatically identify us in any public space something you may not be surprised to hear they are quite interested in doing. Dan simmons has been looking at the preparations made by several governments. To start, youve been to germany . Yes, it seems we could be moving towards a biometric cctv sort of state. And one of the places where it is first happening, which may surprise you, is in berlin. Catching a train in the german capital today means you might be caught on cctv, perhaps while stamping your paper ticket. Neither system automatically tracks your movements, at the very least that requires human intervention. But arrive at sudkreuz, in the south of the city, your face will be scanned and analysed by computers. The testing of facial Recognition Systems began here last month. The authorities are not looking for criminals just yet. They arent really looking for me, either. Around 200 volunteers have had their faces scanned and been given a location tracker, so the authorities know when they pass through here and they can see how often the cameras can pick them up, just by looking at their faces. If the systems accurate enough, then the next stage will be use it much more widely which, for many, would be a breach of privacy. Being constantly monitored with no easy opt out. The germans have a history of being watched. This old us listening station in berlin was how the west kept tabs on east germany. On the ground below, first the nazis and then the stasi in east germany kept files on the population, filled by informants. So, since the fall of the berlin wall in 1989 and the decommissioning of id checkpoints, berliners have been fiercely protective of their privacy. What has changed is that a new threat has replaced the old. Police control the crowds in the aftermath of a terrorist attack. A truck has mowed down shoppers at a Christmas Market in berlin, 12 were killed and more than 50 injured. At this time, cctv is still not widely used in public. But three months later, in march this year, the government passed new laws to extend their use and the face recognition pilot was given the go ahead. Despite the trial offering a white route that passengers can take to avoid the cameras, both the countrys data commissioner and top lawyers have expressed concern about germany moving towards a surveillance state. No one is saying facial recognition couldnt help catch criminals but the public doesnt seem to have been asked. As germany goes to the polls this weekend, one member of the coalition who has been in power told me he wasnt consulted about the trial and the technology has not been publicly debated in parliament. It does not bring more security. It is just collecting data, and more and more. You dont know who, when, where this data may be used. It is a pill they tried to give it to the people which doesnt have any effect because it doesnt solve the problems. Proponents of the scheme point to the dip in crime following the installation of cctv back in 2011. We asked both the German Interior Ministry and the Police Authorities in berlin for an interview and to take a look at the technology, but both declined, so we asked some travellers. I dont trust this system. I dont trust this new development. Like, everybody should be tracked and scanned by cameras. They showed on television that if you have a base cap on or sunglasses, it doesnt work anymore, so maybe not so much. But anyway, if it catches one, we are very happy. It really shows that it will help, then i will be ok with it. In the hope that there is no misuse and no tracking, just collecting tracking data. If those worries are widespread, it is not looking good. Questions still hang over whether the German Police fabricated their records on the man behind decembers terror attack to make them look good. And earlier this month, a Privacy International report said 21 eu memberstates, including germany, are still unlawfully collecting and retaining personal data. Whos watching the watchers . That may be the key question if the technology proves its worth. 0k, first up, we are tracked by our phones every day anyway. So what is the big concern around facial recognition . With our phones, we can possibly turn them off or opt to carry a more basic model. We do have some choices around that. It tends to be companies that collect data. So when the police or the state require that information, they do so on a case by case basis. The concern here is that if we introduce facial recognition, as we have cctv, there would be a very broad database, a sea rchable data base, to find out where each person was and with whom, whenever they were in public. 0k. To be fair, it is just a trial. This has not been released yet . No, it is a trial, absolutely. Just on those 250 volunteers and those members of the public who walk through the space where they are captured on camera. There is another capital city where this technology is already being used by the police to look for real suspects . Yes, here in london, where the most recent trials took place last month. Carnival time in notting hill. The tens of thousands who gathered were monitored above and by officers on the ground. There were also facial recognition cameras here and, unlike in berlin, the london trial is not as visible to the public. The officers are using it to spot real suspects. The metropolitan police declined to show us the technology or to give us an interview, so we spoke to a human rights expert who was invited by officers to witness what happened. In the ten minutes that i viewed facial recognition in action, i saw two misidentifications. In fact, both of them wrongly identified an innocent woman walking past as a wanted man from the polices database. Right, they didnt even get the gender right. Those are false positives are the Police Concerned about that . They werent worried about that. However, they were running it for four days. They told us that they had made many false positives. The system had produced many false positives. She says officers told her they had made one correct match in the four days of use. The leads i met viewed this as a success. The people i met viewed this as a success. As long as they can prove that the software works, it can make a positive match, even if it is making a0 incorrect matches, then it works. Thats not a scientific approach. There is no balance or proportionality, let alone a disregard for the Civil Liberties issues. That is not a success, to our view. Some people will say that the Technology Needs to be tested in real world circumstances and this is what the police are doing in this situation. They have to test it and it could be useful in the future. We all have something to worry about when the police are using intrusive biometric surveillance powers that they dont have a legal basis to use and that they are doing largely in secret. But these kinds of surveillance tools present some really broad concerns and to simply say i have nothing to hide, therefore i have nothing to fear is to unconditionally submit to powers of government that are unchecked. And that is to say, whichever flavour of government comes in, would we be happy with biometric surveillance on out streets . I dont think we would. Londons metropolitan police told us they declined to comment on the effectiveness of the technology. That is slightly concerning, isnt it especially if the software really is that inaccurate . And i guess we havent had any kind of public debate about whether this technology should be used. No, not really. I mean, the police say there will be a public consultation. We asked them how long we would wait for that, and they said it would happen in due course. So we checked parliamentary records and although facial recognition has come up for debate within other bits of legislation around anti terror laws, etc, there has never been any specific debate around the use of facial recognition in public in the uk. Meanwhile, the technology continues to advance and researchers are looking at even more complex technologies. Two examples in the last month Cambridge University said they are developing a system which could potentially identify people with scarves over their faces or wearing hats, and Stanford University in the us say they have developed algorithms that can look at the results of what comes through the camera and determine somebodys sexual orientation. You are looking at something potentially in the future when this technology starts to take off, where you could walk past a camera and youre automatically added to a database you would not necessarily know about. And therefore, as your human rights would say, you could complain and get something done, but you wouldnt even know that it had happened. A lot to talk about in the future, unsurprisingly. Dan, thank you. From filming yourface to feeding it now this is londons borough market. A foodies paradise, stuffed to the gills with gourmet grub. But this week, designers from the Royal College of art alongside inventors have descended on this bustling Street Market to show off a host of gastronomic gadgets. First up, bottle openers that are supposed to make beer tastes better with sound. According to ma student drew richards, the flavour will be better as a result of the satisfying sound. Instead of mixing vast quantities of a recipe before unveiling it to the public, this professor has been experimenting with crowd sourcing ingredients using a web game that mimics the stock market. Having a large number of consumers and playing the game, and in other words telling is what their preferences are, which we took away and we are creating the formula. Bottoms up. Brilliant this student has created cutlery with handles that can be heated, which claimed to slow down child rens eating habits. Slower eating has been shown to make us feel for more quickly. It is hoped that these snazzy knives and forks will do just that, encouraging healthier eating habits in children. And finally, over in the kitchen, students from the rca and Nottingham University hope to capture family recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation by analysing video of visitors preparing food and collecting data from accelerometers attached to cooking utensils. Recipes will be generated to record the way individuals prepare food. We believe that people are better able to articulate their preferences and ideas around food using their bodies. We are putting sensors in kitchen tools to capture those ideas and developing a repository of recipes using the data. So those old family recipes need never be lost in the midst of time ever again. Yeah, anyone else peckish now . Hello and welcome to the week in tech. It was the week that apple released a new version of their operating system cunningly titled ius11. System cunningly titled ios11. Google announced an £800 million deal with smartphone maker, htc, and transport for london said they will not renew the licence for ride hailing company, uber, when it expires at the end of september. Tfl said the company was not fit or proper to hold a license. Uber said it will appeal the decision. It was also the week that Prime Minister theresa may called for Technology Companies to go further and faster in removing extremist content from the web, the Prime Minister also called for social networks and Search Engines to find ways to take down terrorist materials within two hours of publication. And history was made this week as an electric vehicle broke a world record, by travelling more than 1000 miles on a single charge. The 40 foot long test bus travelled 1102 miles on a testing ground, in indiana. The company has not revealed how fast it was going, though, saying only that it travelled slow and steady. And a while a go we told you about the tragic demise of our good friend, steve, the robot security car who sadly and a while a go we told you about the tragic demise of our good friend, steve, the robot Security Guard who sadly perished in a washington fountain. Well, steves parents are back and have spawned a new breed. The k7 has been specifically designed to fight crime in large areas with difficult terrain. Will it suffer the same ill fate as steve . 0nly steps will tell. Ah, that is the smell of a killer those the words of londons mayor, sadiq khan, who said that londons air pollution is way beyond acceptable levels. You cannot really smell much, i know, but the Health Problems are caused by petrol and diesel cars have caused france, the uk and now, this week, china to consider banning them in the relatively near future. Lara is up, in a few minutes, to look at pollution in unexpected places. But first we are off to west oakland, near san francisco, another place with lots of diesel pollution and a lot of people with breathing problems. Sumi das has been meeting the science and tech experts who are trying to pinpoint pollutants. Can you see them . Harmful pollutants. We cannot detect them but this google street view car can. Inside is a minilab from environmental sensor start up, aclima, that monitors air quality. We have this system that weve mounted onto the street view camera platform that has both meteorological instrumentation as well as the inlets this is where we actually sample the gas, the pollution, as were driving along. For one year, two street view cars, supped up with aclima tech, crisscrossed west oakland, california roughly 12 square kilometres, bordered by freeways and home to a bustling port and families. 37,000 kilometres and some serious number crunching later, researchers had this detailed pollution map. Steven hamburg, of the Environmental Defence fund a partner in the project explains how. You need Fast Response instruments, that are collecting data every second, and then you need the analytical capability to actually then use that data to actually map it, in a way that is just characterizing that local spot. Each dot represents about 30 metres. The colour indicates air quality. The darker the dot, the dirtier the air. Red dots cluster around hotspots, like this Metal Recycling plant and this busy intersection. Researchers hope this data will spur governments to start regulating city officials could divert diesel vehicles away from schools, or re time traffic light so lorries arent idling. All this equipment, crammed into this car, it is High Precision stuff and its pricey too pricey to put on a fleet of vehicles so aclima developed a sensor system to measure pollution levels that system will be about 100 times cheaper and about the size of a couple of shoe boxes. Imagine adding air pollution as a layer in your mapping app. It starts with the measurement, of course. The number of times we would need to sample a region to get something that we feel is baseline for that area and then understanding the variability around that baseline. Its ambitious and a massive big data challenge. For now, aclima has a real time tracking tool and that is more than just a breath of fresh air. It is easy to think of air quality as an outdoor issue but maybe it is time that we start to think about the air that we are breathing inside our own homes. Air pollution comes in many forms. In our homes that includes outdoor polluted air coming in through open windows as well as being caused by cooking, lighting candles, burning insense or the use of everyday products. So to test a couple of the latest Indoor Air Quality trackers, i have enlisted the help of professor roy harrison, an expert on the matter who also has his professional air quality monitor kit to hand. First off, time to take a base reading. Firstly we have the foobot. This gives us three different pollutant measurements. It gives us particular matter. It gives us particulate matter. Except that it is not telling us what size fraction its measuring. We are getting a little less than that on our device. Were getting between 5 and 10 micrograms per cubic metre. But it looks like a very plausible reading. And netatmos healthy home coach. In terms of air quality, this device is measuring Carbon Dioxide. Slightly strange because, from a health perspective, it is not one of the pollutants we are very concerned with. Some health releva nt pollutants will be high in Carbon Dioxide but others wont. Although the professor did add this reading was two low to be plausible. For our first experiment, lets burn some toast. Things are really peaking. Theres quite a reaction there to burnt toast. Those are very high concentrations. Its sort of beijing type air quality, in here at the moment, not london. So lets take a look at what the other device has been tracking, the netatmo. So actually, no, it has not reacted at all to this smoking episode but then burning toast does not generate much Carbon Dioxide, unless you actually set fire to it. Fair enough. The foobot turned from blue to red, half way through that so it obviously knew there was a problem. What do you make of the readings . If we look at the volatile organic compounds, that has gone up about tenfold and that is very plausible. Im just surprised that the particulate matter, which is still reading 17. 5, has not responded. Maybe it is a very slow, i dont know, but you do have the advantage that youre measuring three pollutants and the device is giving us a grade warning. On to experiment two and luckily the professor was happy to play along. The hairspray did not cause a reaction from the netatmo c02 sensor, whilst it did alarm the foobot triple sensors. It is responding to the particulate matter. The volatile organic compounds, which would be the main component of the hairspray is up to 8,400 so that has gone up a lot for the background. Its not hugely high. What is very strange is the Carbon Dioxide has gone up to 30,000. Which is a level that would worry me to be breathing, quite honestly. It is a little hard to breathe in here at the moment. It is a huge level. It is all very well knowing the quality of the air you are breathing but you may want to do something about it. A device like this aims to purify the air by first of all tracking it, so it knows what the quality is, at any given time and if the quality is poor it will do more purifying to bring it up to a good level and if the air quality is ok, then it can pause. The dyson pure cool link does come with a hefty pricetag and this model is the size of not so small child. Its motor aims to draw the polluted air into the device before filtering it and dispersing the clean air back into the room. Clearly we had a spike in the pollution level but it has not gone as high as in our earlier spraying experiment. I am impressed that it is coming down very much more quickly than before. And weve moved from very poor to poor on here. My tests seem to indicate the rather odd result that fixing the problem may prove simpler than actually monitoring it. That was laura and before that sumi das in california. That is for this week. Dont forget, we live on facebook and on twitter. Check us out throughout this week and every week. Thanks for watching and we will see you soon. Hello there. Whilst eastern parts of the uk will hang onto sunny weather on the whole we will have more cloud. Temperatures will still be above average for the most part. This was yesterday whereas you can see across the uk we had temperatures and it 4 degrees above average so temperatures and it 4 degrees above average so it felt quite warm. It will if anything be a bit warmer today with the sunshine in the east. Even where we have the cloud and rain temperatures will be averaging a little bit above because of the southerly winds. We have seen the cloud piling in. The weatherfront is bringing its rain already. We will see it prepping up as we go through the afternoon. We have had some sunshine ahead of it for the midlands, for example, but i think here we afternoon will bring a lot more cloud. We hang on to the sunshine in the east of scotland and Northern England but it will be a different day further west. In fact, the rain could be really heavy across scotland. There is likely to be 30 or a0 millilitres of rain and cioss be 30 or a0 millilitres of rain and cross the hills. Even in the central lowla nds we cross the hills. Even in the Central Lowlands we could have 20 million litres of rain. Some heavy rain as possible across the eastern side of Northern Ireland as well towards belfast, antrim and county down. The range should hold off in western england for later. In wales the sunshine will diminish, the low cloud will prevail and patchy rain. More than patchy rain through this evening and overnight. It could be quite a soaking for the gardens in the central and southern areas. But it should be relatively mild. Further west, although the towns and cities will stay in double figures, it could be chilly in the countryside. It is more likely to be foggy by the time we reach monday morning. Fog a real issue for Northern Ireland. Dense fog lasting through the rush hour. 0nce Northern Ireland. Dense fog lasting through the rush hour. Once the fog patches clear, it should be a different day. There should not be a lot of rain left on the weather front come the afternoon. Temperatures will be a little bit lower. Still above average as you can see. That is the main bulk of the first part of the week, that rain band edging its way eastwards but weakening. Southerly winds keeping mild. More autumnal later in the week. Good afternoon. The labour Leaderjeremy Corbyn has rebuffed calls from within his party to commit to keeping the uk in the european Single Market after brexit. As the partys annual Conference Begins in brighton, thirty labour mps are among those who have signed a letter, warning vulnerable workers would suffer if the uk left. But mr corbyn told the bbc that staying in could hamper the governments ability to protect jobs and invest in industry. 0ur Political CorrespondentEleanor Garnier reports. A
