Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Gait Recognition Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Gait Recognition To create the AI combat assistant system that He Xingzhou wants, it wouldn’t happen overnight; it needs to be developed step by step. He Xingzhou pondered carefully for a while, and already had a plan in mind. “To achieve combat analysis, it is necessary to identify people and the environment, which requires biometric identification technology, environmental recognition and generation technology, and physics engine technology; since it is an assistant system, it needs to facilitate unobstructed communication between people and computers, hence it must possess intelligent voice technology; to analyze movements, motion capture technology is needed; there is also the need for biology, physics, and other fields for analysis; this system also needs a carrier, such as computers, smart devices, and the like...” A mature technological product requires the cooperation of various technological aspects to be completed. “Let’s start with biometric identification technology, as everything is predicated on enabling the intelligent system to ‘recognize’ humans.” He Xingzhou, once with a thought, immediately unlocks the relevant knowledge and technology in the tech tree. “Spend 200 energy units to unlock fingerprint identification technology.” “Spend 500 energy units to unlock iris recognition technology.” “Spend 500 energy units to unlock facial recognition technology.” “Spend 1000 energy units to unlock body recognition technology.” “Spend 1000 energy units to unlock gait recognition technology.” ... In addition to these, there are various other biometric identification technologies, including vein recognition, genetic identification, voice recognition, and so on. He Xingzhou decided to start with comprehensive personal identification first. He digested the unlocked technologies one by one and then headed to the Tower Research Institute to start work. “Comrade Yang Bai, I need talents and teams in this area, please arrange it as soon as possible.” He Xingzhou passed his talent requirements to the assistant of Cui Weimin, a colleague from the Security Bureau. “Okay, I will immediately pull together the personnel!” Yang Bai contacted research institutions nationwide, pulling together relevant teams and conducting personnel screening, signing confidentiality agreements. As the personnel involved with the Xuanwu Plan increased, the Xuanwu Executive Officers discussed and divided the executors of the Xuanwu Plan into five levels. Level 5 consists of the Xuanwu Plan’s related executive staff, including magnetic road reconstruction workers, radio network reconstruction workers, relevant companies, and construction crews for the biodefense institutions, etc. These people have no right to know the content of the Xuanwu Plan, nor are they aware that they are executing an important plan; they are merely working as instructed or due to commercial behavior. Level 4 comprises some research personnel and basic-level staff – those involved in the scientific research or mission aspects of the Xuanwu Plan, who are not aware of the specifics of the Xuanwu Plan, only knowing they are involved in commercial or research activities. Level 3 includes the official executors of the Xuanwu Plan, who must undergo strict vetting and understand the part of the Xuanwu Plan they are tasked with executing. Level 2 refers to the researchers of important scientific tasks, such as Academicians from the Academy of Sciences, significant experts in research institutes; as well as team leaders in the execution groups for Xuanwu Plan tasks, who lead and participate in parts of the Xuanwu Plan’s tasks. Level 1, the highest level with the fewest members, includes the top leadership team, the Xuanwu Executive Officers, and He Xingzhou as a special whistleblower. They formulate and amend the Xuanwu Plan, with the authority to mobilize national resources and more! Such hierarchy also serves to prevent the Xuanwu Plan from being exposed prematurely and causing unnecessary trouble. Many talents He Xingzhou needed could only belong to Level 4 executors and were not privy to the content of the Xuanwu Plan, hence they could not come to the Tower Research Institute. Only a small number of key individuals could become Level 3 or even Level 2 members. Yang Bai was fast. In just a few days, he had arranged for personnel and teams for He Xingzhou. Over the past period, Cui Weimin and others had established a nationwide personnel and resource mobilization mechanism to ensure the fastest efficiency in personnel and resource deployment. The first place He Xingzhou arrived at was the First Research Institute of the Shen Zhou public security organization. The reason for coming here was that He Xingzhou received news that due to their recent secretive operations, various localities had sent intelligence personnel to reconnoiter, causing great trouble to the relevant departments. He Xingzhou thought of the biometric recognition technology he was researching, which could be very useful here. Inside the research institute, Hu Yaowen, the head of the research team, was introducing to He Xingzhou the facial recognition system they were using. “The system we are currently using is the ‘Sky Eye Digital Remote Monitoring System’, co-developed previously by telecom companies and police departments. After several generations of upgrades, it can now identify portraits from remote surveillance footage and carry out comparative analysis to find target individuals or analyze suspicious persons.” He Xingzhou took a close look at the Sky Eye Digital Remote Monitoring System and said, “This is not enough; this Sky Eye system’s biometric identification isn’t accurate enough. If the target person alters their appearance or covers their face, they can’t be accurately identified.” “There’s no helping it, after all, it’s just a facial recognition comparison system.” Hu Yaowen shook his head, “For example, some time ago, inside a certain important research institute, a researcher disappeared suddenly. After investigating, we found that he may have been bought over by external forces, suspected to be a spy.” “But since he was very adept at disguises, he covered his face during his escape, and to this date, we can only confirm his activity in a certain area but have not been able to catch him.” He Xingzhou was also aware of this incident. With many participants involved in the Xuanwu Plan, it was impossible to guarantee everyone’s absolute loyalty. No matter the era or country, such things are unavoidable. Fortunately, the traitor was only a Level 4 person who didn’t know the contents of the Xuanwu Plan. He stole some information that was not critical and then fled. “Rest assured, even if he can cover his face, he won’t get away!” He Xingzhou said, “A person can disguise their face, their body shape, but their walking pattern is something they can’t disguise.” “As long as gait recognition technology is added to the Sky Eye system, it will be possible to identify the target through gait analysis!” Gait recognition, that is, identification through the posture of someone’s walk. “Each person’s muscle strength, tendon and bone lengths, densities, visual sensitivity, coordination abilities, center of gravity, weight, muscle injuries, etc., are all different, and there are also various psychological factors, leading to the walk of every person being distinctive,” He Xingzhou continued. “And walking, this action, is habitual. Even the world’s most skilled lurkers find it difficult to notice and correct their own gait.” “With precise gait recognition technology, one could capture the target based on their walking posture. The security department happens to have past surveillance video of the escaped personnel’s work, which can be used to analyze his gait patterns. By comparing through the monitoring network, we can trace his whereabouts!” “Gait recognition? It can even do that?” Hu Yaowen and a few researchers were astonished upon hearing He Xingzhou’s words. If it could truly reach that point, then the Sky Eye system would really be miraculous!
