    Default No where to hide

    Ever wonder how they found the Boston bombers in just a few days? This may help you to understand what the government is looking at. This photo was taken in Canada and shows about 700,000 people.




    Hard to disappear in a crowd. Pick on a small part of the crowd click a couple of times -- wait -- click a few more times and see how clear each individual face will become each time. Or use the wheel on your mouse.




    This picture was taken with a 70,000 x 30,000 pixel camera (2100 Mega Pixels.) These cameras are not sold to the public and are being installed in strategic locations.




    The camera can identify a face among a multitude of people.




    Place your computer’s cursor in the mass of people and double-click a couple times.




    Scary sharp!! Not so easy to hide in a crowd anymore.

    2100 megapixels! That might as well be film emulsion with all that detail. That's amazing!

    Amazing...
    If I could buy one of those, and got it with a credit card; how many airline miles do you think I'd get?

    Default Classy



    Yup, you're right. Very good quality but wouldn't want potential employers seeing this.

    Default Not a single camera

    [QUO

    This picture was taken with a 70,000 x 30,000 pixel camera (2100 Mega Pixels.) These cameras are not sold to the public and are being installed in strategic locations.
    [/QUOTE]

    A camera like that would be nice and may indeed exist somewhere but it does say at the front of this picture ".... It is made up of 216 photos (12 across by 18 down) stitched together, taken over a 15-minute span, and is not supposed to represent a single moment in time. The final hi-res file is 69,394 X 30,420 pixels or 2,110 megapixels. "
