A Russian startup is beating Google with eerily accurate facial recognition technology

NTechLab is only a year old, but the Russian startup is making headlines with its controversial facial recognition technology.

The company rocketed to the top of this nascent industry when it beat Google in the “MegaFace” facial recognition competition held last year in Washington state.

With 30 successful tests under its belt and 300 pending orders, the company  is ready  to take its  facial recognition system  to the world. The company plans to make its cloud-based facial recognition system available to corporate, government, and law enforcement clients.
