Facial Recognition App for Finding Lost Pets

Sorry, this video is no longer available

Facial-recognition technology is reuniting lost pets with their owners.

The American Humane Society in the Twin Cities last week started adding photos to smartphone app “Finding Rover’s” database.

Dog owners can upload a photo of their pet’s face to Finding Rover in case they go missing.

Someone who finds a lost dog could use the app to take a photo of its face, and the app uses facial recognition and location to look for matches.
