April 5 (UPI) -- The U.S. Army is seeking to install face-recognition cameras at base entrance checkpoints, it announced in a contract call for a recognition biometric camera system.
In a request for proposals last week, the Army said it seeks a camera system which can be integrated with existing checkpoint systems and can "see through the windshield of approaching vehicles in various weather conditions during the day and nighttime."
