Throw in a face mask and this tech is all useless. Especially now that we’ve normalized mask use in the U.S. for probably any cold and flu going forward.

They can just do gait recognition as well.

That's why you always shop at Walmart with a roll of pennies in a shoe.

You don't have to be walking. I recently met someone that I had not seen for a long time, recognized them by their pattern of small head movements.

Ok just brainstorming here: mobility scooter, neck brace, leg braces, surgical mask and gloves, sombrero (maximum coverage) and aviator sunglasses.
