Google will ban changes to facial photography in Android 11
I found that the new version of Android has small but important changes in photography. With this update, Camera API Behavior v.7.5.4, "CameraDevice" and Camera API may not change the appearance of human faces. Although Google can hardly prevent the change of the face in the photo after the photo is taken, this update makes it an official Google-certified Android device and cannot allow the image processor of its camera to change the face before or during the shot. Exterior. Captured in the photo.
In this update, Google requires that new Android devices "must ensure that they do not change facial appearance, including but not limited to changing facial geometry, facial skin tone, or facial skin smoothness." As of the publication of this article, this rule is not included in the Camera API Android compatibility rules. There
A set of rules, numbered from C-0-1 to C-0-11 (plus-a C-SR), and the latest rule will appear in C-0-12.
The most direct impact this will have on the Android Universe is smartphones with "beauty mode" enabled by default. The phones produced by Huawei, Vivo and other companies have an in-flight beauty mode, and some adjustments may be needed before using Google's latest operating system.
The premise is that they are using Google's officially certified version of Android, Google apps, and access to the Google Play app store. Taking into account the situation of Huawei in the past few years, if they release phones that cannot access Google services, they may not need to comply with the rule at all.
Another possible reason for this change is related to the changing state of artificial intelligence and machine learning. If your Android phone’s image processor can instantly change the appearance of a human face, it’s easy to take a completely legal-looking photo of someone who looks far from the real world.
We are here talking about Deepfake face swap. We have gone beyond the basically harmless forgeries that companies like Snapchat have brought us.
As early as November 2015, Reuters banned photographers from submitting RAW photos. In order to fundamentally maintain the integrity of journalists and ensure that the recorded content is as close as what humans would have seen or experienced, it is a good step for Rueters to stop the image capture that easily changes in its trajectory. Like the end-the change in the surface of the processor is an important step for Google.
Now, we just need to see if Google can implement similar changes across Android. It’s too late. Companies that move their fingers like Adobe also continue to drag lines.
