Reuters Tests Facial Recognition Video Search

Reuters Labs has debuted a facial recognition search feature that scans across 609 hours of video for the beta test. For example, I typed in Amy Winehouse, and it returned a list of clips making up 18 appearances for a total on-screen time of 1:06. Click a clip, and it plays it from the moment she appears. Mouse over the video, and a box outlines her face with the words “Amy Winehouse.” Very, very cool.
