An Italian startup has created a clothing line that aims to trick facial-recognition cameras. It uses patterns created by algorithms to fool cameras into thinking the wearer is not human. The clothes can make you look like a giraffe, zebra, or dog in the eyes of surveillance cameras. In response, privacy-focused designers have tried to create things we can wear that outsmart facial-recognition technology. The Italian startup Cap-able is the latest to join this trend.
