How many of you have seen the TV shows based in Las Vegas where they have all the behind the scenes view of all the cameras tracking every person?

I experienced that here in Vegas. From the moment we stepped in the cameras already captured our mugs and from that the casino host was able to locate us anywhere. Casino floor, casino restaurant, elevator, hotel hallways.

It was unreal.

I imagine the the technology will be cheap enough to go mainstream in a few years for everyone. Heck, iphoto already has facial recognition where you just have to tag a person once, and it will find all the photos that have that person in it if you want.

Big brother is watching.

There exists a database which all the big casinos subscribe to that has the facial recognition and background checks of all the major cheaters from around the world. The second they step in where they are not wanted, security is alerted and they can then take action. Just like on TV and the movies.
